Placentation refers to the arrangement of ovules within the ovary of a flower. Axile placentation occurs when the ovules are attached to a central column in the ovary. Parietal placentation involves ovules attached to the inner wall of the ovary. Free-central placentation occurs when ovules are attached to a central axis, with no connection to the ovary wall. Basal placentation involves ovules attached at the base of the ovary.
