Flower shapes, also known as floral morphology, refer to the various forms and structures that flowers can take. Common shapes include tubular, bell-shaped, flat, and star-like. These shapes can influence how flowers attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and birds, as different species are drawn to specific forms. The arrangement of petals, known as the corolla, can also vary widely. Some flowers have a single layer of petals, while others may have multiple layers or even unique patterns. Understanding flower shapes helps in identifying different species and appreciating their roles in ecosystems and gardening.
