Gillia pulchella

Long-styled – mean of 11 measurements

Diameter of pollen grains = 17.2 (Hartnack 8 – tube in)

Short styled 12 measurements

Diameter = 17.2

Length of Pistil

Two short styled flowers examined & three long styled

The actual length of the pistils is greater in both the short styled flowers then in either of the long styled ones

By taking into consideration of the corolla it comes out the reverse: The average proportional length of long-styled pistil is to average proportional of short styled as 100 to 82

Stigma of long styled to that of short styled as 1oo to 40 stigma of long styled more papillose of the two

Filaments ie. from position of short-styled to filaments of long style in length as 100 to 25

How much due to growth, I do not know
