• Resumen

  • The variability of Cytisus scoparius floral size is analyzed along an altitudinal gradient in Central Spain and through its flowering season. Flower size shows a anal variation with bigger flowers at higher elevations, as well as a non-directional seasonal change within individuals. These results are discussed in terms of resource allocation.
