Bramble flower opening time lapse showing how the anthers spread out to enable insects to get covered with pollen.
After a few days the petals wither and fall off. It looks like the anthers curl in and around the ovaries in order to deposit pollen on the stigmas to ensure self pollination.
Filmed over a period of 4 days.
