Pollination syndromes in large flowered plants.
The land is more beautiful when it is that season of the year when flowers are scattered everywhere. Flowers are sunshine, food and medicine for the soul. A flower is sometimes called a bloom or blossom, it is the only reproductive structure found in flowering plants. Its biological function mostly it is to outcome reproduction through a mechanism of the amalgamation of sperm with eggs. They may go through what is called outcrossing and selfing. In addition to easing the reproduction of flowering plants, humans use flowers to decorate the surroundings, as items of romance, ritual, religion, medicine and as source of food.
