Basic Explanations and Assumptions:

The dimensions for the seeds are length x width x depth. The location of the hilium is used as the base of the seed, and the length is measured from hilium to the opposite apex. Where a style is present, the length is measured from the hilium to the bottom of the style. Width is measured at a right angle to the length at the widest part. Depth is measured at a right angle to the intersection of height and width lines.

Measurements included are the mean average for each measurement of ten separate seeds.

All measurements in millimeters unless otherwise noted.
