Yes, it is quite common for flowers to be both male and female. They contain structures called pistils and stamens. The pistil is female because it receives the male gamete (in the form of pollen) and combines it with the female gamete to form a plant embryo. The stamen is male because it releases pollen (the male gamete).
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 both male and female reproductive parts are called hermaphroditic or bisexual flowers. These flowers have both the stamen (male reproductive part) and pistil (female reproductive part) within the same flower.
No not all flowers have both male and female parts, and some plants have totally separate male and female flowers.Plants that have either male or female floral parts, but not both are called Dioicous ("two houses")Plants that have both male and female floral parts are called Monoicous ("one house")While many angiosperms seem to have both anthers and ovules they may not, whereas gymnosperms are very good examples of Diocious flowers.
Dioecious,AAndroecious - Male flowersAGynoecious - Female flowers
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.

Gladiolus is a complete flower. The flowers have both male and female parts. There are no separate flowers for male and female. There are no separate male and female plants for gladiolus.
Flowers can be either male, female or both. I'm not sure if the periwinkle is any specific 'gender'. I'd say the either or both applies for all flowers.
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.
Hermaphroditic flowers or perfect flowers have both male (stamen) and female (pistil) reproductive organs. This allows the flower to self-pollinate or be pollinated by external sources.
monoecious- having both male and female organs in the same individual dioecious- having the male and female organs in separate and distinct individuals; having separate sexes... Monoescious means having one sex in one flower, the other in another, both on the same plant. Dioecious means having male flowers on one plant and female flowers on another.
Plants can be both male and female, or have both male and female parts within the same plant. Some plants have separate male and female individuals, while others have flowers that contain both male and female reproductive organs.
