According to a paper published by the Australian Government called "The Biology and Ecology of Sugarcane In Australia", sugarcane does flower. Their sugarcane flowers have three stamens (male) and a single carpel with a feathery stigma (female) typical of wind pollination flowers.

What does 7-up do to cut flowers?

Adding 7-Up to the water in a vase of cut flowers is said to prolong the life of cut flowers. The lemon/lime juice in 7-Up lowers the pH level in the water, and cut flowers like a lower pH. Next, the sugar in 7-Up provides a food source for the cut flowers.


Why the stigmas of most flowers contain quite a lot of sugar?

The stigma of a flower contains sugar to attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and birds. The sweet taste of sugar helps in enticing these pollinators to visit the flowers and transfer pollen, aiding in the process of fertilization and reproduction for the plant.


What is the powder used to keep cut flowers fresh in a vase?

The powder commonly used to keep cut flowers fresh in a vase is often a mixture of sugar, bleach, and a floral preservative. Sugar provides nourishment for the flowers, while bleach helps prevent bacterial growth in the water. Some commercial floral preservatives also contain citric acid to help lower the pH of the water, improving water uptake. These ingredients work together to extend the lifespan of cut flowers.

What two plants does sugar come from?

Answer:The plants and the parts that are best known for containing sugar are: * Maize (aka sweet corn) has sugar in the seeds.* Sugar beet and carrots both have sugar in the root.* Sugar cane has sugar in the stem.* Maple and aspen sap is harvested and dewatered to make a sugar syrup* Almost all flowers contain sugar.Honey is almost 100% sugar. Though made by bees the sugar is from flowers The flowers of the coconut palm are distilled to produce "palm sugar".* Most fruits contain sugarAnswer: Sugar is produced by a process known as photosynthesis. That reaction uses the energy in sunlight to convert carbon dioxide to sugar, cellulose and starches.The parts of the plant that do this work are called photosynthetic reaction centers that contain chlorophyl (this compound gives the "green" to plants). The specific structures that hold the chlorophyl are called chloroplasts. Generally the leaves of plants contain many of the sugar producing sites as they hav alot of surface area to collect sunlight and extract carbon dioxide with the air. However, once produced the sugars are transported internally in the plants to fruit, flowers, roots or seeds by the sap, making these sweeter than the plant in general.
