- Well, to be particularly exact, the place where the column arrow points is actually the anther cap and the column itself is the pink/green structure holds it. Oh well, does it matter? Dalton Holland Baptista 18:45, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
- I wondered about being more specific its hard to see the details and anther cap would be better for my sloppy placement. Even better would be a dissected column to label some of the more specific plants.
- In the diagram you originally linked to the ovaries appear to be very far below where the petals and sepals attached. Is that normal for orchids? For most flowers the ovaries are above the attachment point, or is there a lot of fusion at the base of the petal and sepals organs so it only appears that their attachment point is higher up? I have been looking at the various flower structure on the web and it is no wonder Darwin got attracted to study orchids. The variability is huge and wionderous.
- I can redo this diagram, at present I just threw it together so you could see what we might be able to do. Possibly you have more appropriate pictures? Chris Day 18:54, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
- Well, to be particularly exact, the place where the column arrow points is actually the anther cap and the column itself is the pink/green structure holds it. Oh well, does it matter? Dalton Holland Baptista 18:45, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
