stalked 2 |
= pedunculate |
architecture |
inflorescence |
Having a peduncle. |
bostryx pl. bostryches |
= helicoid cyme |
nominative |
inflorescence |
A cyme in which each axial segment branches to only one side, and all branch to the same side, the whole thus appearing to have an elongate main axis that curves or coils toward its unbranched side. See also scorpioid cyme. |
umbellate |
|
architecture |
inflorescence |
Comprising one or more umbels. |
paniculate |
|
architecture |

inflorescence |
An elongate, unbranched main axis bearing pedicellate flowers inserted singly along it. |
glome |
|
nominative |
inflorescence |
A rounded cluster of sessile or subsessile flowers that are inserted very close together and oriented divergently, the whole more or less hemispheric and sessile or subsessile. |
head |

nominative |
inflorescence |
Having crowded, sessile or subsessile, small flowers (florets) borne upon an expanded, distally plane or convex, sometimes paleate, compound receptacle (torus), often with a surrounding involucre, and sometimes a subtending calyculus; characteristic of Asteraceae (Compositae). |
