She's lucky Atsali's not there to get back for some of the teasing.

Remember what I said yesterday about where plants keep their reproductive organs?

Ouch.

So, when Castel gets aroused she grows flowers to show her receptive state?

So, when you think about it...

Sniffing at a flower is a wildly inappropriate thing to do.

And sniffing at those particular flowers would not only be inappropriate but only slightly less dangerous than trying to pick one of them.

Something I didn't think about when I made my last post, because I was really sleepy...

Not only is she pruning herself, but... Wouldn't this be a form of (temporary) castration?

Considering how unwelcome those blossoms seem to be... I think you've just identified exactly what they are.

Nah, she's part plant. They'll grow back. Given that she's removing them, it's closer to a hysterectomy (instead of a castration, since that's what it's called when the recipient of the act is a male).

Self-fertilizing or not, most plants as far as I know are both genders. They produce pollen (male from the Anthers) and recieve the pollen that fertilizes the ovume (Which becomes the seed when fertilized), via the stigma which is the female part.

Which could make life interesting.

Most, but not all.
  • Many species have "perfect" flowers, with functional stamens with pollen and functional carpels with ova.
  • Quite a few have separate ("unisexual") flowers, with both "male" and "female" flowers on the same plant.
  • A minority (about 6% according to one estimate) are dioecious - some plants have only "male" pollen-bearing flowers, others have only "female" flowers with carpels and ova.
Apparently the blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) has perfect flowers, is hermaphroditic (self-fertilizing) and depends on insects for fertilization. So, yeah, if life bugs her too much she could go to seed all by herself... and considering that Paul has posted sketches of her as a troubled young adult, maybe that's what happens. :(

(No telling what the genetic engineers did to Castela's genome, of course.)

Cannabis, gingkos, some fruit trees . . . Wikipedia has a list.

AFAIK a few of the fruit tree cultivars need a different cultivar for pollination!

There are other methods of preventing self-fertilization, too, such as self-oncompatibility, too.
