When does pollination take place?
Before flowers can produce they must be pollinated. Pollination is the transfer of pollen by pollinators, wind, or other means. This process occurs when pollen, which is produced in the plant’s male reproductive organ, or stamen, is exposed to the pistil found within the female’s reproductive part. Once pollination takes place, seeds begin to develop. Pollination is an important part of a plant’s life cycle, from flowering plants to non-flowering ones. Without pollination, most plants could not produce fruit or set seeds.
