- Depends on how close together you want them to be. Nearly every flowering plant produces many flowers at once. A bunch of flowers clustered together on one branch is an inflorescence. ℰmi1y⧼T·C⧽ 08:56, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- What we think of as a single dandelion flower actually consists of many tiny flowers, packed tightly together on a joint base. Each individual tiny flower produces its own tiny seed with a stalk ending in a downy "parasol". --Lambiam 10:44, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
