The articulation of the stalk is very commonly the result of the con- nective being sharply separated from the filament by a deep constriction; the connection of the two is then maintained by so thin a piece that the anther, together with the connective which unites the anther-lobes, swings very lightly as a whole on the filament (versatile anther). The point of connection may be at the lower end, at the centre (Fig. 363), or at the upper part of the connective; sometimes the detached connective attains a considerable size, and forms appendages beyond the anther (Fig. 364, A, x)t or it is developed between the two lobes like a cross-bar, so that the filament and connective form a T, as in the Lime, and to a much greater extent in Salvia, where the transversely extended connective bears an anther-lobe on one arm only, while the other is sterile and is adapted for a different purpose. Whether the anther-lobes are parallel depends on the mode of their connection with the connective; if they are so, they are -usually attached to the connective for their whole length; or in other cases they are separated above, or free below and coherent above, in which case they may become placed at such a distance from one.
