Flowers with irregular corollas may be papilionaceous when consisting of five petals of
diffierent shapes and sizes: one large distinct, upper and outer (most posterior) petal called the
skndard or vexillum, two lateral petals usually smaller than the standard and very different in shape
called the wings, and two lower and usually smaller petals which are often slightly connate and
mbling the prow of a boat, called the keel. The caesalpinaceous flower is similar to the
pilionaceous flower but the standard is the smallest and most anterior petal. Iregular corollas that
me gamopetalous may be labiates when the limb is 2-lipped, the two upper lobes more or less uniting
to from the upper lip and the three lower lobes uniting to form the lower lip; and ligulate or strap-
aqped when the tube is short opening out into an elongated narrow, flat, strap-like appendage as in
e ny flowers of some of the Compositae.
The arrangement of the petals and sepalsin the bud or the flower may be valvate when their
edges touch each other but do not overlap; imbricate when they overlap to a lesser or greater degree'
ad plicate when they are folded in longitudinal pleats.
