What do you do to a peace lily when the flower has browned?

can you cut the white flower part off?

What do you do to a peace lily when the flower has browned?
Cut the flower off at the bottom near the stem.
Reply:Cut the flower stem down as low as you can.
Reply:its complete. let it go back into the ground and fertilize itself.. wait till next year. :)
Reply:pretty much let it go into dormant and wait for it to come next year!


What happens to the parts of the flower after fertilization?

They all fall off, execept for the developing contents of the embryo. This ensures it's protection--potential predators are no longer attracted by the flower.

In which parts of the flower are the pollen and egg cells produced?
Inside The Ovules Of A Flower
Reply:the pollen-containing the male cells-is on the anthers of the flower-usually it is (but not always) yellow and you can see bumble bees getting their bodies covered in it when they visit flowers. the female eggs are in the ovary which is sometimes noticeable but sometimes hidden within the flower-usually in the center of the flower-what you can see most of the time is the pistil which extends from the ovule and includes the stigma which is the sticky part at the end of the style which is where the pollen lands. the pollen fertilizes the eggs down in the ovary by growing a tube through the pistil until it reaches the ovules and sends through this tube the male cells from the pollen.


Can somebody tell me what the following parts of a plant do?? Flower,Leaves,Stem,and Roots???

Can somebody help me???What do the parts of the plant do???Somebody help me please???

Can somebody tell me what the following parts of a plant do?? Flower,Leaves,Stem,and Roots???
Flower is there to attract polinators like bees, because the flower contains the plants sex organs....Pistol %26amp; Stamen





Leaves are there to convert sunlight by photo synthysis to energy to the plant, Green Absorbs more sunlight energy thean any other color. Leaves also take in Carbon dioxide to build the plant and release Oxygen to the world.





The Roots, Take in Moisture for the plant and trace minerals from the soil to nurture the plant, Carbon comes from Carbon Dioxide absorbed from the leaves, Water and trace minerals come from the roots.





The stem is the hiway that transports all the nutriants to different parts of the plants, this is nutriants from the ground to help grow the plant, transport the carbon dioxide from the leaves plus the energy from sunlight, all to combine to grow the plant.
Reply:the roots anchor the plant and absorb water. the stem helps support the plant and transports nutrients. the flowers are the reproductive organs of the plant, and the leaves photosynthesize and produce glucose.
Reply:I am a Grade 7 student from Jamaica and I know this for a fact the flower of a plant attracts bees to pollinate the flower as bees like beautiful flowers. Have you ever noticed leaves grow towards light that is because the leaves use sunshine to manufacture starch.Now the stem's use is to carry water to the leaves.The roots go out in search of water to give the plant water. Water,sunshine and carbon dioxide photosynthesize plants


How often should I cut the flower part off of my hydrengeas?

I don´t know if I spelled this the right way. I cut one flower off (it was originally blue) and the one that formed is pink:)


I cut the other ones as well-is this the right thing to do? They were old and had holes from where the slugs had gotten to them.

How often should I cut the flower part off of my hydrengeas?
I agree that anytime the flower is old, past prime, or damaged is fine... but if you have an Endless Summer type of hydrangea, you should remove blooms more often, so that the plant will keep producing new ones.... this is a very good site to learn a lot about your plant....





www.hydrangeashydrangeas.com





very nice folks there and great info in FAQ's, too!...
Reply:Yes, it's fine to cut back any spent flowers or flowers you want for arrangements. July and August is the right time to cut back your Hydrangeas, if you want to make the bush smaller. But next year's flowers come from this year's new growth, so you don't want to do any pruning after July or August.
Reply:Hydrengeas are amazing plants. You can actually change the color of the flower from pink to blue by adding fertilizer for acid-loving plants (Miracle Grow in the Blue package)


In the fall, when all the flowering is done, you should cut off the dried flowerheads. By the way, the dried flowers are very pretty in arrangements, even sprayed with sliver or gold paint.


You can ensure blue flowers every year by feeding the plant all year long.


By the way, there are all kinds of different fertilizer for acid-loving plants. I like Miracle Gro a lot.


You can also dig in used coffee grounds around the plant. That is very acidic and makes a good soil conditioner.


Good luck!

What are the parts of the flower the female parts and the male parts?

Parts of the Flower


As the reproductive part of the plant the flower contains the male pollen and/or the female ovule plus accessory parts such as petals, sepals, and nectar glands.


The pistil is the female part of the plant. It is generally shaped like a bowling pin and located in the center of the flower. It consists of the stigma, style, and ovary. The stigma is located at the top, and is connected to the ovary by the style. The ovary contains the eggs which reside in the ovules. After the egg is fertilized the ovule develops into a seed.





The stamen is the male reproductive organ. It consists of a pollen sac (anther) and a long supporting filament. This filament holds the anther in position so the pollen it contains may be disbursed by wind or carried to the stigma by insects, birds or bats.

What are the parts of the flower the female parts and the male parts?
the stigma is the female part


and the anther is the male (makes the pollen)
Reply:The stamen is the male part of the flower. At the tips are the anthers, which hold the pollen grains.The stalk is called the filament.





The pistil is the main part of the flower. The tip is the stigma, the stalk is the style, and the base is the ovary.





Inside the ovary are female cells called ovules.





Petals surround and protect the flower parts.





The sepals form a calyx around the base of the flower.
Reply:The female part of the flower is known as the carpels and it consists of:


1)stigma


2)style


3)ovary


The male part is called the stamen and it consists of:


1)anther (contains pollen grains)


2)filament
Reply:I think it is stamen and stigma

Hydrangeas...They are so beautiful.
Reply:Well you want either a perinnial or an annual flower that only needs partial sunlight.
Reply:hydrangas are great and in the winter when they look dead you can chop them all the way to the ground and they will come back just as strong an pretty.





hostas are great too. they are little bunches of broad leaves that bloom in the spring/summer and then are just green plants most of the rest of the year.

My african marigold flower is dying. How do I cut the dead flowers to encourage more bloomings?

I tried removing the whole faded flowers by yanking it off from the stem. The stem and the root is still intact but without the top part (flower). Is that the right way to encourage blooming?

My african marigold flower is dying. How do I cut the dead flowers to encourage more bloomings?
JUST CUT THEM OFF RIGHT UNDER THE DEAD BLOOM, IT IS CALLED DEAD HEADING*
Reply:You can always go to http://www.1800topsoil.com to see if they have a local pro servicing your area. These guys at http://www.1800topsoil.com are somehow national. I used them in two states. Good luck! Report It

Reply:Just cut with a pair of scissors just above the first leaves you come to below the dead flower. Keep doing this and with the right weather you will have flowers into autumn.
Reply:Just pop them off or cut them off it doesn't matter. Sounds like you are doing exactly what you are supposed to.

What are the functions of the parts in a daffodil flower?

i need it for a school project plz help

What are the functions of the parts in a daffodil flower?
Daffodils are monocots with a layer of tepals which are actually sepals that are colored yellow, they cover and protect the bud. The corolla tube is the yellow petal tube and it (along with tepals) attract pollinators. The stamen produces pollen that contain male reproductive cells, and the pistil contains ovules that become seeds after fertilization. All the parts are attached to a platform called a receptacle, and a stem the pedicel.

Ovule


Ovarian Wall

What is the fate of the following parts of a flower after pollination?
1) Ovary is converted in to a fruit .





2) Ovule is converted in to a seed.





3) Ovarian wall is converted in to the wall of the fruit or pericarp.





( Carp means fruit in botany. Orange is a fruit derived from the ovary of the flower. See 1 above , the rind of a orange fruit is derived from ovarian wall. See 3 above.)
Reply:the above answers are both right. according to my professors, the ovary turns out to be the fruit or the endo and mesocarp, the ovule turns out to be a seed/s and the ovarian wall turns into the fruit wall or the "skin" of the fruits
Reply:FRUIT, SEED ,FRUIT WALL RESPECTIVELY.

What do female parts in the flower produce?

Is it ovary or ovules?

What do female parts in the flower produce?
Fruit/Seed.





The female part of a flower is called the carpel (or the pistill). It contains the stigma, style, ovary and ovule (which is inside the ovary). Basically when pollen created from the anthers lands on the sticky layer on the stigma is travels down the style and germinates the ovum to from a seed. At this point the ovary and surrounding tissue form the fruit.
Reply:Female parts in the flower produce seeds. An ovary carries an ovule. In an ovule is an egg. When the sperm from pollen unites with the egg, fertilization occurs and forms a seed in flowering plants. Depending on the type of plant, this seed may or may not become a fruit. A fruit surrounds and protects the seed.


What happens to flower parts after fertilization?

Specifically: stamen, petal, ovary, sepal, egg and ovule

What happens to flower parts after fertilization?
Stamen - either dries up or drops off, depending on species.


Petal - dries up or drops off


Ovary - thickens and enlarges to form the fruit


Sepal - often dries up and stays attached


Egg - when fertilized becomes the zygote which develops into the embryo of the seed


Ovule - becomes the seed
Reply:Those not needed in the maturation of the seeds shivel up and die.
Reply:The stamen goes limp. Then rolls over and goes to sleep.
Reply:the stamens drop off as do the petal and sepal


the ovary grows rich with fructose forming the fruits and the egg or ovule form the seeds


as in the apple if you turn it upside down you will see the remenants of the stamens and nothing else


the fruit is the ovary wall and seeds are the pips
Reply:Has a cigarette first.
Reply:It actually depends on the plant. Most of the parts will fall off because they are no longer needed. Stamen and petals will fall off (I cannot think of a plant where this doesn't happen). Sepals may or may not fall off. Think of a strawberry or a tomato. The leafy structures on these fruit are actually the remnants of the sepals. The ovules become the seeds of the fruit, and the ovary (I think that is what you meant by 'egg') swells to become the fruit, which could be a berry, a capsule, a seed pod, an apple or pear-like fruit, etc. It can vary a lot from plant to plant, and because of this, the description of the fruit can be key when identifying a plant.

Good cheap, household materials to make a model of a flower and its parts out of?

I need to make a model of a flower and its parts (petal, stamen with anther and filament, sepal, ovule, and pistil with stigma, style, and ovary). I tried clay but it didn't work at all. So I need some good cheap household materials and instructions if possible on how to make them. Thanks!

Good cheap, household materials to make a model of a flower and its parts out of?
It can be done and what comes to my mind is a hanger! You know the bendy silver ones. You can make the stem, twist hanger around to shape leaves. Maybe use candel wax to add petals as an effect which will wtick to the hanger once it cools down. While the candel wax is hot - cut green material and place i on the wax which will be the effect of the leaves etc %26amp; work from there. Hope this helps!! :)
Reply:You need some craft glue, cardboard, and pipe cleaners. Bend the pipecleaners into a stem with a substantial amount folded at both ends of the pipecleaner. Glue one end to a peice of cardboard for the bottom of the stem to make the 'ground'. Take another pipe cleaner and bend it into a couple of loops, now squash the loops right next to each other loop to make the petals. If you need to, grab another pipecleaner and twist the end to the end of the other "petals" pipecleaner. When you have something resembling the petals of a flower twist the end of the pipecleaners around each other and fold it underneath the flower petals to make a base which you need to glue onto a piece of cardboard circle. Make the circle around 4 1/2 inches in diameter. Now glue this circle (with the petals attatched) to the bent over end of the 'stem' pipecleaner. Draw a small circle on this cardboard base to represent the ovary. The stamen will be a bit tricky, but if you can find some wire, cut tiny lengths and simply stick them through the cardboard sitting under the petals. Hows that? Goodluck
Reply:Cotton buds could do the anther and filament - five cotton buds and paint them yellow should be easy enough.





Petals could just be card, you might be able to cut up a colourful bottle top if you're feeling adventurous, but I can't think of how to stick it down... hmm, actually, you got any blue tack?





The stem could be a garden stick, you know the little green ones? About 5 mm square rods could be the stem and it should be tough enough to hold up the rest. If you don't have that then just find a green pencil, and again, use blue tack or plasticine to hold it in place.





The sepal could just be green card again, wrapped around your pencil.





The fiddly bit in the middle is harder - may I recommend plasticine? Use different colours to get the ovule and ovary and all that.





Good luck, and have fun!
Reply:Dear Erika,





I think that petals and leaves could be made of paper which you color or paint in appropriate colors. The stem could be of wire wrapped with paper. If you have any of those tiny wires used in telephone connections, they could be used to make the stamen, perhaps with a small wad of tissue at the end. The pistil form would depend on what kind of flower you are making, but a wad of tissue at the bottom, center of the stamens might work.
