The stamens are numerous, and the pistils are either numerous or few, but they are always separate from each other, that is they are not fused into a single pistil (though some- times there is but one ])istil). All the parts of the flower are separate from each other, and make up successi\e whorls, the pistils terminating the series. When the seeds are ripe the fruit is formed, and may be in the form of a poil, or achene, or in the form of a berry, as in the baneberry (actasa)..
