Sometimes flowers merge.
This is especially true for the cutest daffodil in the world, Tete a Tete.
It tends to grow two flowers to a stem.
Sometimes the two get smashed together.
Sometimes they fuse together.
Occasionally they join into a Siamese-twin type of flower.
These are at first noticeable due to their extra petals and larger cup/corolla.
If you look closely, you will notice two pistils, the female part , in the center.
Also double the number of stamens(male parts) surrounding them.
If you cut these blooms open, you will see there are still two separate ovules in the double-sized ovary.
