Inflorescence and Flowers. — Ihe staminate and carpel- iary flowers have been described on page 44. They arise in the axils of scale-leaves on the long-shoots. (Consult fig. 62.) Ihe open flowers are found only on the young shoots of the current year. The car- pellaryflowers(^,ry) are small erect lateral cones, often two or three together, immediately behind the terminal bud of the long-shoot.
