in [illeg] the same manner these bend on the same long-styled plant with pollen from a distinct another long-styled plant; so that these were fertilised illegitimately & they did not yield a single seed. Nor did this plant which was of course protected by a net net bear spontaneously any seeds. Nevertheless another long-styled plant, which was carefully protected, produced spontaneously a very few seeds; so that the long-styled form is not always quite sterile with its own pollen.)

[Forms of flowers, p. 128: "I fertilised in the same manner three heads on the same long-styled plant with pollen from another long-styled plant, so that these were fertilised illegitimately, and they did not yield a single seed. Nor did this plant, which was of course protected by a net, bear spontaneously any seeds. Nevertheless another long-styled plant, which was carefully protected, produced spontaneously a very few seeds; so that the long-styled form is not always quite sterile with its own pollen."]
