Moiicpctalous corolla; i. e. a corolla of one piece. It is so called, whether it makes a cup or tube with the border entire, as in Morning-Glory (Fig. 175), or with the border lobed, that is, the tips of the j^etals separate, as in Stramonium (Fig. 177), or even if the petals are united only at the bottom, as in the Potato- blossom (Fig. 182). The same may be said of a calyx when the sepals are united into a cup, only this is called 3Ionose'pafous. A mo- nopetalous corolla (and so of a calyx) is generally distinguishable into two parts, namely, its Tube or narrow part below, and its Border or Limb, the spreading part above. It is regular when all sides and lobes of it are alike, as in Fig. 175,177, &;c. It is irregular when the sides or parts are different or unequal in size or shape, as in Sage, Dead- Nettle (Fig. 181), the common Honeysuckle, &c. It is Tubular, when long and narrow without a conspicuous border, as in Fig. 178, or Trumpet-shaped; tubular, gradually enlarging upwards, as in Trumpet-Creeper and Trumpet-Honeysuckle (Fig. 178) ; Funnel-shaped or Funnel-form (like a funnel or tunnel) ; when the tube opens gradually into a spreading border, as in Morning-Glory (Fig. 175) and Stramoni- um (Fig. 177) ; Bell-shaped or Campanulate ; when the tube is wide for its length and the border a little spreading, like a bell, as in Hare- bell (Fig. 179). Salver-shaped; when a slender tube spreads suddenly into a flat border, as in Phlox (Fig. 180). Wheel-shaped or Rotate ; same as salver-shaped, with the tube very short or none, as in the corolla of the Potato (Fig. 182) and the Nightshade (Fig. 183). illiT—^ X'^^^i/'W "^^ Labiate or Two-lipped; when the border di- vides into two p
