What a Wonderful story !.. This Colosses are the most big flowers in the world of the water Lilies ! And a story about these Scarab beetles.., which eat their nectar... This is the real paradise for them ! BfK. 👍🆗💯😘 🌸⭐💮⭐🌹⭐🌺⭐🌻⭐🌼 😍🆒😇
The volcano crater lake had enormous lily pads with white flowers that perfumed the air with a pineapple scent. I did not dare approach the lake as I knew anaconda resided in it.
wait, so the water lillies are always born as females, then an insect is caught in it which transfers the pollens to it and then the flower becomes and male the other day and produces its own pollens which the insect carries away..
There's a some what similar process with the Titan arum where in its full form the flower heats up and releases strong odors to attract flies at night. there's a bbc documentary showing the heat signature/pattern of the stamen it turns red under infrared from the heat.
So if I interpret this correctly, all lilies are born female and are therefore pollinated by last year’s males (who then die back to seed and re-germinate). I guess they don’t care about being unfashionable and “wearing” things from last season. :-)
No, the narration is confusing. All flowers in this species are bisexual ( male and female parts). The first evening the flower opens it is in the female phase and receives beetles. If the beetles bring in pollen the female part is fertilized. "Trapped" in the closed flower the beetles chew on starchy food bodies (NO NECTAR) but also take the opportunity to have sex with other beetles (the floral motel). As the flower ages and prepares to reopen the female part shuts down and the stamens release pollen onto the beetles. The flower opens and the free beetle looks for a fresh, female phase flower. When a flower is bisexual and female parts mature before male parts botanists call it protogyny (female bits first). Alternating between female and male "phases" in the same flower lowers frequencies of self-pollination and increases chances of cross-pollination. Sorry to be so long-winded.
BrainSoap Well it's National Geographic and the documentary was about The Amazon, but I'm not sure which one I'm afraid. Google "Wild Amazon", that might be it. Sorry!
Most flowers are both male and female, but the lily pads might have the female part already grown while the male part is a bit underdeveloped. Once the female part is fertilized, the male part matures and thus produces pollen for another female flower. Keep in mind that this happens inside one flower.
Jesus is coming back. Are you born again? If not secure your eternity today. You do not have to go to hell. Jesus paid the price for all your sins. If you want to be born again Say the following prayer but you also have to believe it: Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins that you was buried and rose from the dead the third day. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior.

Fascinating!
What causes the flowers to heat up at night? How does this chemical process take place?
There's a some what similar process with the Titan arum where in its full form the flower heats up and releases strong odors to attract flies at night. there's a bbc documentary showing the heat signature/pattern of the stamen it turns red under infrared from the heat.
Im crying right now !!!!
Are these flowers psychoactive such as the small sacred lillies of the nile?

krisissocoollike thank you
Thks for nice videos. Yes i havesen it Indian Botanical garden. India
How did the first female flower turn to male? are there some that are always male? So confused. This plant is really cool though. :)
Most flowers are both male and female, but the lily pads might have the female part already grown while the male part is a bit underdeveloped. Once the female part is fertilized, the male part matures and thus produces pollen for another female flower. Keep in mind that this happens inside one flower.

Nature has its way to conserve water from evaporation. We humans are using plastic balls for it even when nature has provided its own solution.
