(26) The Apple {Pynis mains, L.) is a small tree with long vegetative shoots and short spurs, upon which the flowers are borne. The leaves are stipulate. The flowers appear in groups, one terminal on the spur, the rest in the a^dls of the bracts below it. Each flower, together with two bracteoles, is borne on an elongated stalk, which swells immediately below the calyx into the enlarged inferior ovary. It is thus epigynons (Fig. 425), and consists of: Calyx, sepals 5, polysepalou
