This plant of a friend seems to only produce calyxes. Is this a genetic thing or could it also be due to some kind of stress? If it is because of genetics, do you think this could be worth saving by taking a cutting?

    I just proved you wrong with your own gotcha example and additional literature, but yeah, this is the nature of the calyx/bract argument.

      The additional stuff says different than your other two sources…? Sure that proves me wrong? and what gotcha example?

      Your paper shows a bract under the flower structure itself, like my image. So how does that make the outer flower coating a bract…? Please explain with your own words instead of copying pasting others.

      Because it seriously looks like you’re just regurgitating information without understanding it. Every source you’ve provided has said and shown something different dude…

      Again, no argument, just someone being wrong. It’s like when a flat earther tries to “explain” or argue their side. Sure you can call it what you want, but you’re still never going to be correct…

        Man, I’d swear that’s the definition of an argument!

        Well, this has been an excellent argument. Thank you for the time!
