In botany, the condition where flower parts (like petals, stamens, or sepals) exist in different numbers, making the flower asymmetrical.
From Greek 'anomios' (dissimilar) and 'meros' (part), literally 'dissimilar parts.' A botanical term for irregular symmetry in flowers.
Some flowers are rebels—instead of having five petals like most in their family, they'll have four, or six, or random numbers. This messes with the whole genetic blueprint and tells botanists the plant's ancestry.
