Inside a Cherry Blossom
Open to everyone until Wednesday, September 30
To keep it, print it while it is open.
A cherry blossom has both male and female parts inside it. The stamens make pollen, and the pistil holds the ovules.
In the picture
- The tip of a stamen: the yellow part that holds pollen.
- The pistil: the central flask-shaped part that receives pollen.
- An ovule: a tiny round seed-start inside the pistil.
Examples
- A bee visits a garden flower and yellow pollen sticks to its legs.
- A cherry tree grows small fruits after its blossoms are pollinated.
Key takeaways
- Stamens are the male parts and make pollen.
- The pistil is the female part and holds ovules.
