The pollen-mass of the male plant (for the sexes are separate in this orchid) is thus carried to the flower of the female plant, where it is brought into contact with the stigma, which is viscid enough to break certain elastic threads, and retain the pollen, thus effecting fertilisation.
Horretara, landare arraren polen-masak (orkideo honetan sexuak bereiz baitaude) landare emera eramaten dira, eta hor estigma ukitzen dute; estigma zenbait hari elastiko hausteko bezain liskatsua da, eta, polenari eutsiz, ernalkuntza burutzen da.
