Pollen Flowers (Po). These are flowers which oflfer only pollen to their visitors, as, e. g. in species of Anemone, Papaver, Hypericum, Helianthemum, Rosa, Solanum, Verbascum, and Sambucus. They are all very simple, regular in form (radially symmetrical), and their often very abundant pollen is usually freely exposed (Fig. 18). 1.
