Thanks BeLinda! Well done, how nice you were able to combine a hike with the
Bingo assignment. I think your example of the silique is actually a loment (a fruit of the legume Hedysarum). Those two fruit types, legumes and siliques, are easily confused, I have added some detailed images to the post from Jamie.

Please look over diadelphous stamen arrangement, commonly found in Fabaceae, 9 fused, 1 distinct. Diadelphous is not to be confused with didynamous: 4 stamens: 2 long, 2 short
(Lamiaceae & Scrophulariaceae). Best, Steffi.
