Moraceae

6-Mulberry male flowers

[FMP-field: image]

In mulberries, the flowers are imperfect, and the plants are monoecious — see the drawing on page 102 in the Zomlefer text. This image shows a group of male inflorescences of Morus alba, white mulberry. Each flower has 4 tiny green sepals and 4 stamens.
