As to the Pistil, we have also learned that it consists of three parts, the Ovary, the Style, and the Stigma (IC) ; that the style is not always present, being only a stalk or support for the stigma. But the two other parts are essential, â the Stigma to receive the pollen, and the Ovaiy to contain the ovules, or bodies which are to become seeds. Fig. 156 represents a pistil of Stonecrop, magnified; its stigma (known by the naked roughish surface) at the tip of the style; the style gradually enlarging downwards into the ovary. Here the ovary is cut in two, to show some of the ovules inside. And Fig. 157 shows one of the ovules, or. Style. Ovarv,.
