Apportionment in the German races. — I give in table XVI the figures 

 for the German races. As in tlie Kew r*ace so here, in poor flowers the 

 sepals are most numerous and in rich flowers the stamens are most 

 numerous. But in these German races the petals do not claim their full 

 number until the flower is rich enough to have 29 or 30 organs and on 

 the part of the carpels no tendency to be satisfied can be detected.
