Sentences with ESCHSCHOLTZIA (5)
Your Eschscholtzia plants were growing well when I left home, to which place we shall return by the end of this month, and I will observe whether they are self-sterile.
These observations will hereafter be published in another work, in which I shall also show that seeds sent to me by Fritz Müller produced by plants of _Eschscholtzia californica_ which were quite self-sterile in Brazil, yielded in this country plants which were only slightly self-sterile.
The self-sterility, however, of some of the foregoing plants is incidental on the conditions to which they have been subjected, as with the Eschscholtzia, the _Verbascum phœniceum_ (the sterility of which varied according to the season), and with the _Passiflora alata,_ which recovered its self-fertility when grafted on a different stock.
Eschscholtzia californica, seedlings from a cross with a fresh stock not more vigorous, but more fertile than the self-fertilised seedlings.
This case reminds us of the somewhat analogous one of Eschscholtzia, in which plants raised from a cross with a fresh stock did not grow higher than the self-fertilised or intercrossed plants, but produced a greater number of seed-capsules, which contained a far larger average number of seeds.
