Biflorus
/by-FLOH-rus/🏷️ Taxonomy●● Intermediate
Also known as: biflora, biflorum
A floral epithet indicating the plant consistently bears exactly two flowers per stem or cluster — a specific and immediately verifiable characteristic. Appears as biflorus (masculine), biflora (feminine), or biforum (neuter).
Etymology
From Latin bi- (two) + flos/floris (flower), meaning "two-flowered."
Example
“Narcissus biflorus (twin-flowered daffodil) reliably produces two flowers per stem, and Primula biflora similarly carries its pair of blooms as a consistent and diagnostic feature.”
