Solution
In the flower of Dianthus, the ovarian part is fused but styles and stigma are free. Its ovary becomes unilocular due to breakdown of partition wall and the ovules are attached to a central axis, i.e. the ovary is syncarpous, superior, unilocular, with many ovules and free central placentation.
