Some flowers have both male and female organs in the flower. Some flowers have separate male and female flowers. Some plants have separate PLANTS for each sex.

A handy way of remembering is Pistol Packing Mama. The pistol is a female organ for the plant. The anther is a male organ of the plant. The anther produces pollen which sets stuck on the stigma (part of the pistol) and goes down the style and into the ovary where it goes into the ovule to fertilize and create a seed.

The pollen has a similar function to human sperm. It gets inside the female plant organ by wind, insects or gravity to fertilize the plant.
