There is one more point about the flowering- rush to which 1 would like to allude before going on to the other threefold flowers, and that is this. In arrowhead and water-plantain the carpels are very numerous, but each one-seeded. In flowering-rush, on the other hand, which has a larger and handsomer blossom, more attractive to insects, they are reduced to six; but these SIX have many seeds in each, bo that a single act of fertilisation suffices for eaoh of them.

RMRE1R40–. A manual of Indian botany. Botany. 150 MORPHOLOGY CHAPTER XXI FRUITS AND SEEDS. We have learnt that seeds are produced from ovules as the result of fertilization. Fertilization also gives an impetus to the growth of the ovary, which then matures and forms what is known as fruit. If fertilization fails, the ovary, as a rule, does not develop into' a fruit, but withers and falls away along with the other parts of the flower. There are, how- ever, some ex- ceptions, met with mostly in cultivated plants, such as Plantain, Orange, Guava, Papaw, &c., in which the ovary , matures into fruit eve
