For us humans, flowers are mainly a pleasure to look at, but when you zoom in a little with a nature’s eye, you see how ingenious this reproductive organ of the plant is. Because what was it like again, that story of the flowers and the bees? A bee, or another pollinator, flies to a flower in search of nectar for its own energy balance. The nectar is often at the bottom of the calyx of the flower. The bee therefore has to work hard to go deep into that flower. In doing so, it more or less accidentally hits the pollen threads. Pollen sticks to the body and at the next flower where the bee is looking for nectar, the pollen from the first flower ends up on the pistils of this specimen.
