Flower Ovary


A flower ovary is the flower's female reproductive organ, also known as the gynoecium, which is in charge of producing ovules. After the ovary is fertilized, it begins to develop into a seed, while the flower itself transforms into a fruit. This is done so they may be dispersed elsewhere and continue growing. Though the location varies between different flowers, the ovary of the flower depicted here is the rounded end located at the base of the flower.
