A CHAPTER TO STUDY. 



The Calyx and Corolla are spoken of as parted when 

 they are divided nearly to the base. When they are divided 

 about half way they are said to be cleft, or lobed. They are 

 TOOTHED when the lobes are very small. 



When the parts of the Calyx or Corolla are united, the 

 terms used to express their different forms are : 



Salver-Shaped : when the border is flat and spread out at 

 right angles from the top of the tube. (Fig. 13.) 



FIG. 14. FIG. 15. FIG. 16. FIG. 1 7. 



Wheel-Shaped : when the border suggests the diverging 

 spokes of a wheel and spreads out at once, having a very short 

 tube. (Fig. 14.) 



Bell-Shaped, or Campanulate : when the tube expands 

 towards the summit and has no border, or only a short one. 

 (Fig. 15.) 



Funnel-Formed : when the tube is narrow below, and 

 spreads gradually to a wide border. (Fig. 16,)

FIG. 18. FIG. 19. FIG. 20, FIG. 21. 



Tubular : when the tube is prolonged, and does not widen 

 much towards the summit. (Fig. 17.) 



Ligulate : when appearing strap-shaped, as in the dandelion 

 and chicory. (Fig. 18.)
