The regular receptacle has no internodes. It bears the several whorls of the flower in close contact with each other, and is usually slxort and depressed. 443. Lengthened receptacle. When these whorls arc nnnieroiis, as in buttercups, tulip-tree, the receptacle is necessarily elongated. So in Myosurus, blackberry, strawberry. In the two latter it imbibes the 290 nutritious juices of the plant and becomes a part of the fruit. 444. Excavated recepta- cle. On the contrary, the to- rus instead of lengthening may be hollowed out in the center. The carpels of the rose are sit- uated in suqh a cavity, while tlio other organs are borne upon its elevated rim. In Nelumbium the carpels are immersed in as many separate excavations in a large, fleshy Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Wood, Alphonso, 1810-1881.
