Illegitimate union :

Mid-styled by pollen of mid-length stamens of short-styled. Legitimate union :
23 : 23 : 10.4.
Mid-styled by pollen of own and own-form longest stamens. Illegitimate union :
52 : 0 : 0.
Mid-styled by pollen of own and own-form shortest stamens. Illegitimate union :
30 : 1 : 6.
Mid-styled by pollen of shortest stamens of long-styled. Illegitimate union :

Short-styled by pollen of own and own-form longest stamens. Illegitimate union :

Short-styled by pollen of longest stamens of mid-styled. Illegitimate union:
4 : 0 : 0.
Short-styled by pollen of mid-length stamens of long-styled. Illegitimate union:
3 : 0 : 0.
We here have the remarkable result that every one of 138 legitimately fertilised
flowers on the three forms yielded capsules, containing on an average 11.
