Biflorous Plants
Biflorous plants are unique species that produce two distinct types of flowers on the same plant. These flowers often serve different purposes, such as attracting various pollinators or facilitating reproduction at different times. This adaptation can enhance the plant's chances of successful pollination and seed production.
Common examples of biflorous plants include certain species of Cucurbita and Corydalis. The presence of two flower types allows these plants to thrive in diverse environments, as they can attract a wider range of pollinators, including bees and butterflies, which are essential for their reproductive success.
