Trimonoecy

Trimonoecy, also called polygamomonoecy, is when male, female, and hermaphrodite flowers are on the same plant.[1] Trimonoecy is rare.[2]

It is a monomorphic sexual system along with monoecy, gynomonoecy, and andromonoecy. It is hypothesized that trimonoecy originated from gynomonoecy.[3]
