Most of times, it is the fruits that attracts attention, the flowers go unnoticed because it blends with foliage. What we see in the photo - I thought are the female flowers. The flowers appearing below must be the male flowers. Take a look at photos I have, I need your validation. ♂ http://www.flickr.com/photos/dinesh_valke/2641930594/ ♀ http://www.flickr.com/photos/dinesh_valke/2641095983/ Regards.

What you see in the image is the fruit, flowers face to the lower side and seem to be place below the leaf although the attachment is up. As the fruit formation is triggered flowers turning into fruits gradually come up and look like cup and saucer… -hemant From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dinesh Valke Sent: Saturday, July 11, 2009 9:39 PM To: Prashant awale Cc: indiantreepix Subject: [indiantreepix:14479] Re: Breynia retusa ... many thanks for sharing this beauty, Prashant, a rarity !!
