MALE CONES OF JACK PINE All sorts of methods are used for getting male pollen to female flowers and for dispersing the ripe seeds. Some plants produce huge amounts of pollen which is blown by the wind and some, by chance, falls on female flowers of the same species. For example, the yellow powder you see collecting on the surface of northern lakes in the spring is the pollen of coniferous trees. This picture shows male pollen-producing cones of a pine tree.
