SO ENDS this dalliance into flower structure, which will conclude next weekend. Flowers are complex both developmentally and from an evolutionary viewpoint. But a small set of parts, by virtue of fusion and non-fusion, can generate a wide range of floral complexity. That simplicity can beget complexity is true across nature, from amino acids and proteins, the limited pallet of the elements, to crystal types. In all cases, a small starting set generates remarkable diversity of form.
