The quality or process of being fan-shaped; arrangement in a fan-like pattern.
From Latin flabellatus (fan-shaped) plus -ion suffix, creating an abstract noun describing the state or process of having a fan shape.
Flabellation is the kind of hyper-specific scientific term that you only ever encounter in specialized botanical papers, yet it perfectly captures the idea of something becoming or appearing fan-shaped.
