| Description | Vastel's paper in eight articles reports on experiments and observations on germination, including whether all cotyledons are necessary for germination in species with multiple cotyledons, whether secure cotyledons or radicles are required for germination, whether a stem can grow independently of roots, whether a radicle can grow independently of or without the plume, and whether separated cotyledons can reproduce by themselves. Preceded by an introductory letter from Vastel to an unknown recipient. The paper includes one separate plate.
