His contributions to the famous volume of Shrewsbury verse, Sabrinae corolla, are among the most remarkable of the collection.

It has the motto Decus Sabrinae Vallis ( Latin for " Jewel of the Severn Vale ").

The actual name of the line of his first collection, presented in early 1947, was Corolle ( literally the botanical term corolla or circlet of flower petals in English ), but the phrase New Look was coined for it by Carmel Snow, the editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar.

The closely related genus Calluna was formerly included in Erica – it differs in having even smaller scale-leaves ( less than 2 – 3 mm long ), and the flower corolla being more divided into separate petals.

Convolvulaceae can be recognized by their funnel-shaped, radially symmetrical corolla ; the floral formula for the family has five sepals, five fused petals, five epipetalous stamens ( stamens fused to the petals ), and a two-part syncarpous and superior gynoecium.

The staminate ( male ) flowers are without either calyx or corolla ; they consist simply of stamens, varying in number from two to ten, accompanied by a nectariferous gland and inserted on the base of a scale which is itself borne on the rachis of a drooping raceme called a catkin, or ament.

The pistillate ( female ) flowers are also without calyx or corolla, and consist of a single ovary accompanied by a small, flat nectar gland and inserted on the base of a scale which is likewise borne on the rachis of a catkin.

Petals are usually accompanied by another set of special leaves called sepals lying just beneath the corolla.

They are characterized by a showy calyx and reduced corolla.

This need not always be an effective strategy, because some flowers that are of such a shape that they favour pollinators that pass by their anthers and stigmata on the way to the nectar, may get robbed by ants that are small enough to bypass the normal channels, or by short-tongued bees that bite through the bases of deep corolla tubes to abstract nectar at the end opposite to the anthers and stigma.

As in other members of the tribe Cichorieae, each ray corolla is tipped by 3 to 5 teeth.

The blossoms themselves each consist of about twenty stamens and a single pistil, bound together at the base by a short, green, tubular corolla and an even shorter calyx, just 5 mm long altogether.

Calluna is differentiated from Erica by its corolla and calyx each being in four parts instead of five.

It has been distinguished from other Papaver sections morphologically by its bristly, valvate capsules, pinnatisect leaves, pale stamen, and white, orange or yellow corolla.

The head of the corolla appears to be 17 mm ( 0. 67 inch ) by 23 mm ( 0. 91 inch ) in length by 4 mm ( 0. 16 inch ) to 10 mm ( 0. 39 inch ) in width.

The basal part of the corolla tube is narrowly cylindrical and is half of the length of the entire tube at 19 mm ( 0. 75 inch ) to 21 mm ( 0. 83 inch ) in length by 1. 5 mm ( 0. 059 inch ) to 2 mm ( 0. 079 inch ) wide.

The corolla tube forms a comparatively wide and broadly ovoid, broad and rounded at the base and tapering toward the end, head that measures 0. 4 to 0. 5 times the tube's length, thus, at 1 cm ( 0. 39 inch ) to 1. 9 cm ( 0. 75 inch ) long by 0. 7 cm ( 0. 28 inch ) to 1. 1 cm ( 0. 43 inch ) wide.

The corolla lobes are obliquely and broadly obovate, egg-shaped and flat with the narrow end attached to the stalk, at 0. 8 to 0. 9 times as long as the tube, hence measuring at 1. 35 to 1. 6 times as long as it is wide at 15 mm ( 0. 591 inch ) to 19 mm ( 0. 75 inch ) long by 11 mm ( 0. 43 inch ) to 17 mm ( 0. 67 inch ) wide.

The family is characterised by spirally arranged simple leaves with no stipules ; symmetrical white flowers with a corolla of 2-5 (- 7 ) fused petals ; and the fruit usually a dry capsule, sometimes winged, less often a fleshy drupe, with 1-2 seeds.

For decades, most sources used a classification of the family published by Grant in 1959, but new evidence, including molecular phylogeny, veins of the corolla, pollen, and the flavonoids present, have led to reclassifications, such as the 1998 classification by Grant.

This type of corolla, a feature of all families of Asparagales as well as the related order Liliales, distinguishes them from other monocots, such as grasses, palms or reeds, in which the perianth is either reduced or with the members of one or both of the whorls firm-textured and dry and often brown or green.

As with other members of the Lamiales the flowers have a ( usually ) zygomorphic corolla whose petals are fused into a tube and there is no one character that separates a gesneriad from any other member of Lamiales.

As in other members of the bladderwort family, the corolla is fused into a bilobed tube tapering to a spur, with the lower lip of the corolla having three lobes.

An unusual feature of this genus compared with other members of Lamiaceae is that the flowers completely lack the upper lip of the corolla, although it is somewhat reduced also in other genera ( Ajuga among them ).

In members of Asteraceae, " ligule " can also refer to the corolla of a ligulate floret.

The members of the family have five sepals, five petals fused, and five stamens that alternate with the lobes of the corolla.

The corolla, which is folded and only partially open, is white, funnel-shaped, and has six prominent ribs.

Brown Cloves: Expanded flowers from which both corolla and stamens have been detached.

The calyx, which may or may not be present, and the corolla are gamosepalous and four-lobed.

The calyx ( plural, calices, the sepals ) and the corolla ( the petals ) are the outer sterile whorls of the flower, which together form what is known as the perianth.

The calyx consists of five or more sepals, which are often persistent in the fruiting stage, and the corolla is five-merous, rarely numerous.

Daboecia differs from European Erica species in having a deciduous corolla which is substantially larger than the corolla in the same species of Erica.

It may be confused with the closely related Primula elatior ( oxlip ) which has a similar general appearance although the oxlip has larger, pale yellow flowers more like a primrose, and a corolla tube without folds.

The flowers are white, with a five-lobed corolla 10 – 15 mm across, with an inflated basal calyx which matures into the papery orange fruit covering, 4 – 5 cm long and broad.

The flowers are produced in clusters of 10-50 together ; each flower is bright red, 1-3 cm diameter, with a deeply five-lobed corolla, with each lobe further split into two smaller lobes, which creates a general shape similar to the Maltese Cross to which it owes its name.

The flowers are small, white or pink, with a five-lobed tubular corolla which is produced in mid-spring.

The corolla lobes are obliquely ovate, a flatten egg-shape profile — running at 0. 52 to 0. 7 times as long as the corolla tube, which is 1. 6 to 2 times as long it is wide.

The corolla tube is 4. 4 to 6 times as long as the calyx, which is 1. 13 to 1. 22 times as long as the corolla lobes.

The name ( strophos anthos, " twisted cord flower ") derives from the long twisted threadlike segments of the corolla, which in one species ( S. preussii ) attain a length of 30 – 35 cm.

The corolla is also tubular, usually with five lobes ( the upper lip often cleft, and the lower lip has two clefts ).

The petal whorl or corolla may be either radially or bilaterally symmetrical ( see Symmetry in biology and Floral symmetry ).

The stamens are long and extend beyond the corolla ( petals ) ( exserted ).

The flowers have a tubular corolla with five petals most often fused at the tips, forming an umbrella-like canopy, a cage, or appendage-like antennae ( Dyer, 1983 ).

In Cyclamen rohlfsianum, however, the cone of anthers sticks out prominently, about beyond the rim of the corolla, similar to shooting-stars ( Dodecatheon ).

The corolla may be white, yellow, violet, blue, brown and even black ( see images ).

The perianth may either consist of the calyx ( all sepals ) and the corolla ( all petals ), or, if sepals and petals are not differentiated, of the perigone ( all tepals ).

The flowers are produced in open, long-stalked cymes at the top of the stems ; the flower corolla is about 40 mm diameter, with five pink ( rarely white ) lobes with bluntly acute apices, and a contrasting bright yellow central ' eye '; they are hermaphrodite ( contain both male and female organs ).

The flowers are 2 – 3 cm diameter, with a five-lobed velvety corolla (" petals "), and grow in clusters of 3 – 10 or more on slender stalks ( peduncles ).
