The Blossom of the Walnut 



The walnut, like many other trees, is a wind loving plant 



and depends upon the swish of its branches in the breezes and 



the breezes themselves to carry its pollen from limb to limb and 



tree to tree. The direct color photograph print shown here is 



that oj the pistillate, or pollen-receptive blossom of the 



walnut tree, upon whose slightly sticky surjace the 



flyine pollen finds lodgment, its grains Jer- 



tilizing the seed, combining with it 



to produce a crop oj walnuts.
