Queen sago cone (Cycas circinalis)
Queen sago (Cycas circinalis). This is a cone from a female plant. Cycads are dioecious, each plant being either male or female. The female cone contains the ovaries. When pollinated with pollen from a male, the cone swells and the fertilised ovaries produce large seeds

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a Queen Sago cone (Cycas circinalis), originating from a female plant. Cycads, like this one, exhibit dioecious characteristics, meaning that each individual plant is either male or female. In this particular image, we witness the remarkable structure of a female cone containing ovaries - the crucial reproductive organs responsible for seed production. The process of reproduction in cycads begins when the female cone is pollinated with pollen from a male plant. As fertilization takes place, these incredible cones undergo an enchanting transformation as they swell and develop into their mature form. The fertilized ovaries within the cone ultimately produce large seeds that hold immense potential for new life. This photograph not only captures the essence of nature's ingenuity but also serves as a testament to the wonders of botanical biology. It highlights how even seemingly simple plants possess complex mechanisms for reproduction and survival. As you gaze upon this single Queen Sago cone print by Science Photo Library, take a moment to appreciate its significance in our understanding of botany and biological processes. Let it serve as a reminder that every living organism has its own unique way of perpetuating life on our planet – truly showcasing Mother Nature's brilliance at work.
