Photo essay. Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera) in a palm grove. Nefta oasis, Tunisia. Date palm is a dioecious plant. This means that its flowers are unisexual - either males, or females - and that each one of the sexe is carried by a different individual. We then talk of male bottom and female bottom. The female bottoms carry the fruits.
