INFORMATION PROVIDED WITH THE PHOTO
  • date of photo  Mar 16, 2019
  • location   Traffic-triangle median where Lake Merced Blvd & John Muir Dr meet at south end of Lake Merced, San Francisco (San Francisco County, California, US)
  • family Campanulaceae
  • notes   This photo shows two of the small, translucent, pentagonal staminal filament-bases, which are ciliate along their distal edges. In the photo, each one has a few small, globular, off-white ovules sticking to it (due to my somewhat unpracticed dissection technique ;-). The pentagonal bases of the five stamens lie flat against the top of the ovary covering it at the bottom of the corolla tube. For each filament, a narrow thread-like distal portion extends upward from the distal tip of the basal pentagon, and holds the anther up against the style & stigmas. But those thread-like portions have broken off the filament-bases here.
