Excerpt from The London Journal of Botany, Vol. 7: Containing Figures and Descriptions of Such Plants as Recommend Themselves by Their Novelty, Rarity, History, or Uses; Together With Botanical Notices and Information, and Occasional Memoirs of Eminent Botanists; With Twenty-Three Plates

The andrwceum consists generally of six stamens, four long and two short (tetradynamia). The long stamens are inserted side by side, and a little higher than the single ones. The stamens alternate exactly with the petals, but in this alternation, the twin stamens, if we may so term them, are so disposed, that each pair fills the space which one only of these organs ought to occupy.
