Allium flowers are having one style and six epipetalous stamens. This complete Brassica flower is having 4 distinct sepals, 4 distinct petals, and 6 stamens. And tetradynamous with 4 long and 2 short. The filaments of the stamens will unite to form two bundles of 9 + 1 in the Tephrosia. Ocimum has the didynamous stamens with four in number, 2 short and 2 long.
