The figures of F2 are found in tables V and VI. As long as the 
number of factors has not been determined, the dimensions of the 
staminodes would not have any importance, if large and small 
flowers were uniformly distributed between the plants with green 
leaves and those with red leaf margin. This is, however, not the 
case. The shortest as well as the longest flowers are found among 
the green leaved individuals, which therefore have a larger variability. 
In table VII is given the number of plants having an average 
length of the flower of 62—63, 64—65 mm. ete. The limits of 
variability are for the plants with red leaf margin 66—90 mm., 
for the green ones 62—96. The difference, 10 mm. is not so very 
great, but on the other hand the difference in the numbers of 
*) 10 flowers per plant. **) 25 flowers per plant.
