Species

One of several racemes with open flowers. Flowers open in sequence towards the end of the inflorescence so that not all flowers are open at the same time. This strategy maximises the potential of effective pollination.

Scanning electron microscopy image of the dehisced anther of E. elephantina. Pollen grains are the rugby ball-shaped cells. The lump of cells at the top of the anther (lower left of image) is an anther gland.
