Tlie male fecundating ele-ment is the pollen grain. This latter, when it shall comein contact with the stigma of the pistil, germinates andproduces a long tube which forces its way through thestyle to the little ovules. The pollen tube penetrates theovule and finally reaches the egg cell, when changesoccur that later produce seed (Fig. 70 to 75). A flower(like that of the pussy willow) which consists of apistil or pistils and no stamens is called a ••PistiUateFlower
