What Does Perfect Flower Mean?
For horticulturalists, a perfect flower is not just a flower that is pleasing to the eye, but a flower that makes female sex cells, receives male sex cells, and makes and distributes male sex cells.
A perfect flower has both the male (stamens) and the female (carpel) reproductive parts. As it contains the reproductive organs for both of the sexes, it can pollinate itself (via self-pollination) and does not require an external agent such as wind or insects to transfer its pollen.
