Excerpt from The Classes and Orders of the Linnæan System of Botany, Vol. 1: Illustrated by Select Specimens of Foreign and Indigenous Plants
Linnaeus has thus expressed his opinion on this subject' While plants are in flower, the pollen falls from the antherae, and is dispersed abroad. At the same time that the pollen is scattered, the stigma is then in its highest vigour, and for a portion of the day at least is moistened with a fine dew. The pollen easily finds access to the stigma, where it ad heres, and being mixed with the fluid of the stigma. Is conveyed to the rudiments of the seed.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents examples of plants connected to poetry, history, or useful knowledge, designed to make the subject of botany more engaging. It contains at least one British plant from each class and order, except those not found in our indigenous botany. This book is part of a broader 24-class system, featuring four supplementary orders of ferns, mosses, liverworts, flags, and fungi. The author posits that plants have no common character other than their parts of fructification. This book is illustrated by plates preceding each class and contextualizing plants within the broader categories of the Linnaean system. The author suggests that while nature follows its own distinct pattern in arranging plants, the Linnaean system of botanic organization is purely artificial and serves only to present order. The author employs various species to illustrate that plants within the same class and order can be vastly different from one another, and that a strict conformity to the scientific rules that define genera and species could destroy the most natural affinities. The book concludes that the generic name is sufficient so long as there are not two or more species to create any ambiguity.
