In plants that have more than one flower on an axis, the collective cluster of flowers is called an inflorescence.[14] Some inflorescences are composed of many small flowers arranged in a formation that resembles a single flower. These are known as pseudanthia.[50] A single daisy or sunflower, for example, is not a flower but an inflorescence composed of numerous florets, or tiny flowers.[51] An inflorescence may include specialised stems and modified leaves known called bracts, as well as smaller bracteoles
