Which among the following is incorrect statement? |
Bamboo Produces large number of fruits and die. Strobilanthus kunthiana (neelakuranji), flowers once in 12 years. Bamboo generally, flowers after 30-50 years. Bamboo flowers only once in their lifetime. |
Bamboo generally, flowers after 30-50 years. |
The correct answer is Option (3) – Bamboo generally, flowers after 30-50 years. Plants –the annual and biennial types, show clear cut vegetative, reproductive and senescent phases, but in the perennial species it is very difficult to clearly define these phases. A few plants exhibit unusual flowering phenomenon; some of them such as bamboo species flower only once in their life time, generally after 50-100 years, produce large number of fruits and die. Another plant, Strobilanthus kunthiana (neelakuranji), flowers once in 12 years. |
