Where is the ovary on a hibiscus flower?
ohh.....the yellow stuff is the pollen grains(male gametes)





and the ovaries are in the flower(if you see your flower, it is inside it, more specifically the pollen tube[the long part where pollens are attached on top in your flower] leads towards it)





use this site to see where the ovaries are!!!
Reply:In this particular picture we cannot see the ovary. The little yellow tips are the anther lobes with pollen grains. The orange coloured five bigger tips at the top are the stigma. The ovary however cannot be seen in the photograph is ther at the base of the flower.
Reply:OK, look at this link to a different picture and a different species of hibiscus and at the bottom of the flower you can see some green bracts, well, inside those is the ovary and it's in the same place on most hibiscus flowers.

Reply:the ovary is in the pistil(female part) and the yellow tips are the stamens (male part)..im guessing??
