I'm sorry that this is such a newbie question. But how do the neps reproduce?
Okay, I'm a science teacher and my parents did have that "birds & bees" discussion with me.
The other day I saw an advertisement for a female ventrata (or maybe it was a ventricosa). What I'm wondering, are there male nep plants and separate female nep plants? Do the male and female exist on the same plant? What do the flowers look like...if there are any. Are there separate male and female flowers or are the male and female "parts" within the same flower? Are hybrids sterile...I've never heard of a crossing of a hybrid with the neps.
So if anyone could please discuss the "birds and bees" of the neps...I'd appreciate it.
Have a great day!
