This is usually coioreil. ii may consist of a number of separate parts called petals; these may be more or less united. The calyx and corolla are called the floral envelopes because they surround and protect the stamens and pistils, which are the essential organs of the flower. They are called essen- tial organs because to- gether they produce the seed. The Stamens consti- tute the third set. .\ stamen consists of two i)arts, the filament and the anther. The Filament is the anther stem. 'I'he Anther is the essen- tial part and lontains the Pollen which it discharges when mature. When the lilament is wanting the anther is said to be serisih'. The Pistils are at the centre of the flower. L: - not often.
