Pollen production is a critical part of the plant reproduction process. Pollen is produced in a male flower's stamen, and it is a powder of grains that produces the sperm seeds of plants. The stamen is the male organ of the flower and contains a small stalk called a filament. The polle...
Although some people are allergic to pollen, the role pollen plays in the life cycle of a plant is nothing to sneeze at. Flowering plants, called angiosperms, produce pollen in a male floral part called the stamen, comprised of a stem-like filament and pollen-shedding pod called the anther....

And while you might already see this as a potential horror-movie plant (it has a very science fiction quality to it) what makes it just a hair cooler is its pollinator! The amazing flowers that are produced (prior to fruiting of course) are red bell-shaped flowers that grow horizontally ...
While the bee moves about the flower, pollen collects on its furry legs and body. When the bee leaves the flower to land on the next one, the pollen falls or rubs off onto the next flower, resulting in pollination. The flower helps the bee by giving it nectar, and the bee helps ...
The simplest way to get pollen from one plant to another is to let the wind carry it. Although this is a low-effort method, it is not very precise. Nonetheless, many plants – from conifers to almost all species of grass (including most cereal crops) are still largely wind-pollinated....
