Biology:Gynophore
From HandWiki
A gynophore is the stalk of certain flowers which supports the gynoecium (the ovule-producing part of a flower), elevating it above the branching points of other floral parts.[1] Plant genera that have flowers with gynophores include Telopea, Peritoma arborea and Brachychiton.[2]
