The flower’s ovary part is the one that develops into a fruit, which is consumed by everyone. Fruits mostly contain seed. It is this part of the plant that helps further sprouting of new plants.

Different types of fusion of fertilization are offered by flowers like:

  • Outcrossing: The fusion of sperm and egg from different varieties within a specific population.
  • Selfing: It is fusion of sperm and egg from similar flower.

Similar other type of life on Earth, flowers are also said to have evolved. Few are known to produce diasporas, but without fertilization, some are said to make themselves attractive towards animals and insects to ensure transferring of pollen.

It is without doubt that flowers are regarded to be objects of admiration and beauty. They are used for beautifying and enhancing environments and spaces as objects. They are also synonymous with ritual, romance and religion, as well as act as wonderful sources of medicine and food.

According to studies, bees pick up food from flowers in the form of pollen and nectar. At the same time, bacteria is also transmitted by them to the flowers via ‘micro biomes’, a term used for indicating bacterial community present within the gut of the bee. Lactobacillus Micheneri is a common bacterium, which is associated largely with fermented foods. It is also a common bacterium, known as the good bacteria, playing a crucial role to ensure good health. It is found accumulated on those flowers which are wild bee pollinated, which are considered to be mostly solitary, carrying pollen within their undersides.

But the fact is not every flower can be stated to be fragrant or beautiful. Few flowers are aid to have evolved quite strangely for ensuring survival. One such flower is "Corpse flower", which has been named so, due to its putrefying urine and decaying animal flesh smell. It can be found in the dense jungles across the globe. For attracting insects and bugs, the flowers have made itself to become much smellier and bigger for attracting pollinators as well as to reproduce quite efficiently.
