inflorescence: the complete flower head of a plant including stems, stalks, bracts, and flowers.
Racemose Inflorescence
In this type of inflorescence, the flowers branch laterally on the floral axis. Here the floral axis keeps on growing and the flowers develop in an acropetal pattern.
Cymose Inflorescence
In this type of inflorescence, the flower is the terminating point of each floral axis. In Cymose inflorescence, flowers follow the basipetal pattern of growth.
Compound Inflorescence
The main axis branches once or twice in a racemose or cymose manner.
Cyathium
It contains a cup-shaped involucre provided with nectar-secreting glands. A female flower is enclosed within the involucre. A number of male flowers surround the female flowers.
Verticillaster
It is a condensed form of a dichasial cyme with a cluster of sessile and sub-sessile flowers.
Hypanthodium
The receptacle forms a hollow cavity and has an apical opening protected by scales.
