Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ...ovary in such a manner that the sepals and petals are attached to its upper part. Such flowers are said to be superior, and the ovary is inferior. In flowers like those of the peach, cherry, blackberry, and bean the calyx is attached to the base of the pistil. These flowers are inferior, and the ovary is superior.

It results from the development of an inferior ovary; and may be solid as in the watermelon, or hollow as in the muskmelon. The hesperidium is a thick-walled, many-carpelled ovary. Oranges and lemons are examples. Both the pepo and hesperidium are special...
