Om the other hand the cells are sometimes mtiltiplied in the fruit by the formation of false partitions. Thus the pod of thorn-apple (Datura) becomes 4-celled from a 2-celled ovary, and the longer pods of some leguminous plants have cross- partitions formed between the seeds. 428 , 42T. 428 425 424 Capsule, 427, of Scrophularia, 2-oclled ; 428, of Datura Stramonium ; 425, of Iris; 426, show- ing Its mode of dehiscence (locnlicidal); 424, of Colchicum, 8-celled. 43S, Kogma, ripe fruit of Geranium, the carpels (cocci) separating from the axis and bending upwards on the elastic styles.

The pericarp {-spl, around) is the envelope of the seeds, con- sisting of the carpels and whatever other parts they may be combined with.
