A flower with this arrangement is described as hypogynous. Flowers hypogynous; usually in racemes, rarely solitary or in axillary clusters of 2 or 3. Five stamens arise from a cup-like structure (hypogynous disc) at the base of the flower. Stamens are 2-6, and hypogynous, with 2-locular anthers. Hypogynous flowers are often referred to as having a "superior ovary". The green hypogynous flowers have a simple perianth and are generally self-fertilizing. Flowers have radial symmetry, are hypogynous, and have most parts arranged in whorls of 5. The female flowers are hypogynous, that is, with superior ovaries. The ovaries are hypogynous (superior, that is attached above the other floral parts). The typical "Papaver" gynoecium is superior (the flower is hypogynous) with a globular ovary.
