Red Cecropia (Cecropia glaziovii)
Red Cecropia Reproduction
They are adapted to wind pollination- either by pendulous
spikes which can be moved by the wind to shed the pollen or by the special
adaptation of detachment of anthers and their secondary attachment allowing the
shedding of pollen by motion of anthers. Seeds can be viable for more than five years and will germinate when triggered by full sunlight and changing temperatures. [2]
