The main points brought out may be summarised as follows. The perianth shows a general tendency to be spiral in origin, resulting in the imbrication of the parts in the bud. The flowers are fundamentally diplostemonous despite the fact that an indefinite number of stamens is usually found in the fully developed flower.

The syncarpoua ovary of 2 -5 cells with axile placentation is formed by the early fusing of separate carpels at their edges; the fused carpels than grow inwards to the centre where they meet and fuse to form the central column of the ovary.
