Botany. 46 ORGANOGRAPHY. variety of forms of the calyx and corolla; prominent among which are: Kotate, Salverforni, Cam- pauulate, Funnelform, Tubular, Labiate, and Ligulate. 56. A rotate (Lat. rota, wheel), or wheel- shaped calyx or corolla, is one in which the tube is very short or wanting, and the lobes ^"^ spread at once (Fig. 102). la the salver- form corolla, the spreading limb or border is raised on a narrow tube, and forms a right angle with the latter (Fig. 103). The campanulate (Lat. campanula, bell) denotes a bell-shaped calyx or corolla (Fig. 104). In the funnelform, the tube is " narrow below, but gradually spreading above like a funnel. The tubular form spreads scarcely any above (Fig. 106). The two upper petals may unite closely and form a kind of upper lip, and the three lower ones unite to form a lower lip (Fig. 105.) In such case the corolla is labiate (Lat. labium, lip). The calyx may also be labiate, or two-lipped. 57. If a flower-head of a Sunflower be examined, it will be found to consist of numerous florets, with tubular corollas interspersed with the bristles or chaff" (Fig. 106), and a row of marginal flowers called ray flowers; these ray flowers have strap-shaped corollas (Fig. 106, %), which are called ligulate (Lat. lignla, tongue). A curious shape is presented by the Pea or Bean (Fig. 107). The corolla. Fig. 103. A Salverform corolla. Fig. 104. A Campanulate corolla. Fig. 105.
