Female butternut squash flowers
Female butternut squash flowers (Cucurbita moschata). Cut away view of the reproductive parts of a pistillate (female) butternut squash flower (left). The cut away has revealed the stigmas (orange) and styles (white) at the centre of the petals (yellow). At the base of the flowers are embryonic fruit. Plants in the Cucurbitaceae family are monoecious, meaning they have unisexual (imperfect) flowers of both sexes on the same plant

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of female butternut squash flowers (Cucurbita moschata). With a cut-away view, we are granted a glimpse into the reproductive parts of these stunning blossoms. The pistillate flower on the left reveals its hidden secrets, as vibrant orange stigmas and delicate white styles take center stage amidst the surrounding yellow petals. At the base of these enchanting flowers, embryonic fruit can be seen, promising future abundance. It is fascinating to note that plants in the Cucurbitaceae family possess both male and female flowers on the same plant, making them monoecious. This unique characteristic allows for efficient pollination and fertilization within their species. The image captures not only nature's artistry but also highlights essential aspects of botany, horticulture, and biology. It serves as a reminder of our interconnectedness with plants and their vital role in sustaining life on Earth. Displayed by Science Photo Library, this photograph offers an opportunity to appreciate the wonders found in even seemingly ordinary elements of our natural world. Whether you have an interest in biological sciences or simply find solace in observing nature's marvels, this print is sure to captivate your imagination.
