(Payer.) parts of the ring which connect the original projections begin to grow and the distinct ])arts are carried up on the rim or the tip of a tube or united mass of organs. Flowers which as they develop retain the original distinct- ness of their petals, or which develop none at all, are termed archichlamydeous.^ Such flowers, we have seen, characterize the crowfoot series which includes all the orders we have studied and a number of others resembling them in the pe- culiarity noted. 130.
