The arrangement of flowers on the floral axis is termed an inflorescence. Depending on whether the apex gets developed into a flower or continues to grow, two major types of inflorescences are defined: racemose and cymose. In the racemose type of inflorescences, the main axis continues to grow, the flowers are borne laterally in an acropetal succession.
