A variety of flowering traits were measured, including flower opening phenology, bloom season phenology, and flowerage density.
Flowerage density: An area of 1 m2 was selected on the crown of each tested tree.
The flowerage density was significantly (P 0.05) greater in 2013 (150 18 FHs/m2/day) than in 2012 (146 21 FHs/m2/day).
The bloom phenophase can be classified into three sub-phenophases: kickoff (May), main flow (June- July) and fading (August), with flowerage density means of 6, 217 and 18 FHs/m2/day, respectively.
This classification was built from the flowerage density data (Figure 1).
The mean of the total flowerage of a tree was 11,759 595 FHs/tree/day, while the means of each month were 456 45, 12,899 883, 21,615 1,174 and 1,429 152 FHs/tree/day during May, June, July and August, respectively.
"Flowerage" opens with a concept of death implicit in botanical forms and in our lives: "our pulse is flower-pulse, death-pulse.
