Yes, Okra plants produce both male and female flowers. The female flowers are recognizable by their swollen ovary at the base, which eventually develops into the edible okra pod. Pollination typically occurs with the help of insects, allowing for the production of fruit from the female flowers.
They said there are male and female type of okra and the female is the that bears fruit! Not sure though..^^
Yes, okra does require pollination to produce fruit. Bees and other pollinators help transfer pollen between okra flowers, which is necessary for the plant to produce fruit.
Ladies fingers or Okra is a member of the Hibiscus family H.esculentus it is an annual grown for the fruit used in cookery. The flowers are fairly inconspicuous.
Hollyhock's are part of the mallow family. Other plants in this family include hibiscus, okra, and cacao.
An okra flower typically has one pistil. The pistil is the female reproductive part of the flower, which consists of the stigma, style, and ovary. In okra, the flower also features numerous stamens, which are the male reproductive parts. Together, these structures facilitate the pollination and fertilization process necessary for producing okra pods.
African violets are male and female flowers. They have pistils (the female part) and stamen (the male part)
Flowers can be male, female or both. If the flowers have male and female structures they are said to be perfect. Imperfect flowers have either male or female reproductive structures. If a plant has male and female flowers on one plant it is said to be monoecious (which means "one house"). Squash and corn plants are monoecious. If the male and female flowers are on separate plants, they are said to be dioecious (which means "two houses"). Hollies, kiwi and ginko plants are dioecious.
Cucumber plants have separate male and female flowers. It is possible that your plant is currently only producing male flowers. This is common early in the growing season and female flowers should appear as the plant matures.
Male and female gumamela flowers can be distinguished by their appearance. Male flowers usually have prominent stamens (male reproductive organs) with pollen, while female flowers have a stigma (female reproductive organ). Additionally, female flowers may develop into seed pods after pollination.
Some plants have separate male and female flowers, dioecious plants have male and female flowers on separate plants, monecious plants have male and female flowers on the same plants . Holly trees and kiwi vines are diocious.
Flowers that have both male and female parts are complete flowers. The male part is the pollen from the stamen. The female part is the "pistol-packing mama."
Flowers with pistils but no stamens are called pistillate flowers or female flowers. These flowers have reproductive structures that include the female reproductive organ (pistil) but lack the male reproductive organ (stamen).
