Rose Here is a close-up of the stamen of a rose from Avery
Courtyard. The sample was obtained in Avery Courtyard Tuesday afternoon at 3:30
PM. We picked out the stamen from inside the flower, put it on the glass slide,
taped it on, and covered it with a coverslip. We observe the tubular structure
of the stamen and the head, which contains the pollen. The head is shaped so
that the pollen can easily disperse. #caltechbi1
