The word apocarpous is actually an adjective.

It basically means to have the carpels which are actually independent of one another.

Apocarpous pistils basically means when a number of different pistils of the similar flower is actually different.

The pistil is therefore apocarpous in nature and thus consists of a number of different individual carpels that have style, ovary and stigma.
