Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Flower of the chickweed
False-colour scanning electron micrograph of the flower of common chickweed, Stellaria media, a self- pollinating plant found on uncultivated ground in Europe. In the background are the five sepals or calyx (green), which serve a protective function. Next are the 5 notched petals or corolla (yellow), which attract insects by their bright colour. Calyx & corolla together form the perianth. Three stamens topped by pollen-bearing anthers (male organs) lie between the petals & the capsule. At centre are the tufts of the stigmas (female organs) supported on stalks called styles. These connect the pollen-receiving stigmas with the ovary. Magnification: x5 at 6x4.5cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate beauty of the flower of common chickweed, scientifically known as Stellaria media. Found on uncultivated ground in Europe, this self-pollinating plant is a true marvel of nature. In the background, we can see the five sepals or calyx, which play a crucial protective role for the delicate inner structures. Moving closer to the heart of the flower, our attention is drawn to its vibrant yellow petals or corolla. These notched petals serve as beacons for insects with their bright coloration, attracting them towards this botanical wonderland. Together with the calyx, they form what is known as the perianth. Delving deeper into this microcosm, we discover three stamens topped by pollen-bearing anthers - these are male organs responsible for pollination. Positioned between the petals and capsule lies another vital component: tufts of stigmas supported on stalks called styles. These female organs connect with pollen-receiving stigmas to facilitate fertilization within the ovary. The level of detail captured in this false-color scanning electron micrograph is truly awe-inspiring. At a magnification of x5 and printed at 6x4.5cm size, it allows us to appreciate every intricate feature that makes up this remarkable flowering part. This print from Science Photo Library serves as a testament to both nature's complexity and its breathtaking beauty – an exquisite reminder that even within seemingly ordinary plants like chickweed lie extraordinary
