I admire you, Gargji, Tabishji, Neilji, and several others on the group with little or no knowlege botany, but still outdoing many botanists. I am simply amazed by your love for plants. Just to set records straight: what we are talking about is not flowers, but collection of flowers technically capitulum, but simply said a head. The green structures outside are not calyx but involucre bracts or phylaries; the stalk is peduncle. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Associate Professor, Department of Botany, SGTB Khalsa College University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018 Phone: 011025518297; Mobile: 9810359089 http://people.du.ac.in/~singhg45/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "indiantreepix" group.
