In botany, characterized by stamens that have grown together with or are attached to the female reproductive parts (carpels).
From Greek gynē (woman) + anth- (flower) + -erous (bearing), describing the fusion of male flower parts to female structures.
Gynantherous flowers show that plant 'sexuality' is more like a dance than a division—male and female parts literally fuse together, which would be impossible in animals but works perfectly for stationary organisms!
