(Plants fertilised for 1864)

Plant (4.) Three fl. were fert. heteromorp. by hom. pollen & set 2 pods, one with 32 very fine seed & the other with 12.: 20 fl. were fert, with own pollen & did not set one pod.!!

4 [+] 20 [+] 12 [=] 36

Plant. (3.) Four fl. fert. heteromorph. by hom. pollen & set not one pod: & 7 with own pollen & set not one pod. 5 [+] 7 [+] 12 [=] 24

Plant (5) This year very unhealthy; & 2 fl. were fert by own pollen & oddly both set & produced 8, & 15 good seeds 2 12

Plant (6.) This plant became unhealthy in June, yet 3 fl. fert. heteromorp. by hom: pollen & all 3 produced pods, yielding 40, 42, 52 seed.

No less than 32 fl were fert. by own pollen & only 1 pod produced with 23 seed; so unhealthiness will not account for great sterility 32 [+] 12 [=] 44

Homomorphic seedlings

Plant (4) long-styled from short-styled.

I fertilised 2 fl with heteromorphically with heteromorphic pollen of cowslip & got

15 very modest seed

0. —

I fertilised 4 fl Homomorphically with own-form pollen & got no pods

The result, agrees, as far as it goes with Plant I.

Homomorphic seedlings from long-styled

Plant (3) long-styled, fertilised 3 fl. with pollen of Polyanthus & 5 homomorphically with own-form pollen; no pod had begun to swell, when whole umbel withered apparently quite sterile plant—

Plant (5) long-styled from long-styled

I fertilised 2 fl heteromorphically with pure cowslip pollen; only one produced some poor seed sticking to placenta

I fertilised 3 fl. heteromorphically with homomorphic pollen; & one produced 75 very minute seeds & a second 56 do; but certainly not one of these seeds wd have grown, — So this plant miserably very sterile

Plant (6) I fertilised 5 fl heteromorphically with pure cowslip pollen: one produced 50 fine large seeds; & the one other a good many small seed slinging to ovarium.—

I also fertilised 5 fl heteromorphically with homomorphic pollen; & one alone produced 26 rather poor small seed.—
