🌿 Hazel in bloom. Hazel flowers long before its leaves appear. Its yellow dangling catkins, 'lamb’s tails', are the male flowers.
Look closely & you’ll see tiny female flowers too: small buds with delicate crimson-red threads that catch the pollen. #Hazel #Botany #Flowers #BritishWildlife #Nature

All this talk of endosperm applies only to Flowering Plants (Angiosperms), which have triploid endosperm. Gymnosperms, like pines, cycads, & junipers, do NOT have endosperm. In their seeds, the nutritive storage tissue is the female gametophyte, which is haploid. #seed #Pinaceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱
✨ The findings highlight the importance of integrating multiple ecological and functional traits to improve extinction-risk assessments in island floras. 🌺
