If you’ve nursed your cucumber plant into a large, leafy vine, it can be disappointing and confusing when it hardly produces ...

Pollination is not all or nothing. Unpollinated flowers will die and drop without forming fruit, however incomplete pollination can also occur resulting in fruit that is deformed or drops off early.

New research suggests insects have pollinated flowers since the pollen-bearing blooms first evolved more than 140 million years ago.

Other wind-pollinated plants include grasses (blooming now), ragweed (a major cause of allergies in the fall) and various other weedy plants.

Homeowners with pollen allergies can still cultivate a beautiful garden by making pollen-conscious plant choices. Trees that rely on wind for pollination, such as oak and pine, produce ...

It is the flowering trees and plants that are wind pollinated that are the ones that cause problems for humans with allergies. Flowering plants, that are pollinated by insects, are usually not ...

If you’re nursing an indoor plant where there aren’t pollinators at all, or you’re just anxious and want to control the pollination process, you can do so via hand pollination.

Some flowers, however, rely on other means to transport their pollen, such as vertebrate animals, wind or even water. Which kind of pollination evolved first?
