The female part of a flower is the pistil, it is composed of three parts; the stigma, style, and ovary in which is contained the ovules or eggs. The male part of a flower is the stamen, it consists of a filament attached to a pollen producing sac known as the anther. The pistil and stamens are attached to a flower stalk and are surrounded by leaf-like parts. These leaf-like parts are the petals and sepals which form, the floral envelope. It is the floral envelope that gives form and attractiveness to most flowers.
