I meant the shaft|stalk|tube of the pistil.  Could have sworn that it 
was not a perfect cylinder or cone but rather that if you took the 
cross-section it would be revealed that it is more irregular.  Could 
swear I see some faint shadows or striations running lengthwise which 
could either be texturing or actual form.  But obviously my eyes are 
decieved.  Anyway that only reinforces my original comment.  That the 
straight texture is probably accurate but combined with the plain 
geometry doesn't quite make us think this structure was the result of 
organic growth.
