A botanical condition where the receptacle or flower bed is inclined or sloped rather than flat.
From Greek 'kline' (bed/slope) and 'anthos' (flower), literally 'sloped flower bed'—describing the angle of the receptacle that holds flower parts.
Different flower shapes have different angles of their bases—this seemingly tiny detail affects how water drains during rain and which insects can reach the nectar!
