Very interesting petals of this plant. I wonder what function does the white bristle on the edge of the central petal perform? This is an open pistil and stamens?
You surprise every time with new colors for me! Thank you!

Yes they are the reproductive part of the flower. They are designed to rub on the bees backs, legs etc when they go to the flower. That way, the bees can polinate other flowers as they travel between plants. Nature's smart design !
