A perfect flower, in botany, is a hermaphroditic flower with stamens, a carpel, and an ovary. A plant with perfect flowers is capable of self-pollination and can reproduce without the presence of another member of its species. Such a plant is therefore by definition monoecious, though not all monoecious plants have perfect flowers.
