Source: Webster's dictionaryAfter fertilization, a short stalk at the base of the ovary (termed a pedicel ) elongates to form a thread-like structure known as a "peg". Source: Internet
Because it has a prophyll at the base of the pedicel, it therefore would fall within section Crocus, although its exact relationship to the rest of the subgenus remains unclear. Source: Internet
The pedicel gives rise to a spiky antler the following year, that is replaced by a branched antler in the third year. Source: Internet
The joint formed between the bicuspid and the pedicel is partially flexible, as it can bend inward, but not outward. Source: Internet
The pedicel can be seen attached to a few loose scales. Source: Internet
