Castor Oil (Ricinus communis)
Author's comments:
En esta inflorescencia se puede observar en la parte superior, en color rojo, todos gineceos o sea órganos femeninos que en su base ya empieza a desarrollarse el fruto que se ve verde. En la parte inferior se observan los órganos masculinos que forman el polen amarillo. Esta separación es para evitar la autofecundación.
