Floral Diagram Generator from Floral Formula
Create botanical floral diagrams from floral formula notation. Parse K, C, P, A, and G whorls, show fusion rings, mother axis, bract, and export SVG, PNG, or CSV.
Brassicaceae Floral Diagram
K4 C4 A2+4 G(2)
Parsed structure
- K: 4 free calyx / sepals
- C: 4 free corolla / petals
- A: 6 free androecium / stamens in groups 2+4
- G: 2 fused gynoecium / carpels

Brassicaceae Formula
K4 C4 A2+4 G(2)
A mustard-family style diagram with four sepals, four petals, and six stamens.
Fused Corolla Example
K(5) C(5) A5 G(2)
Shows fusion rings for the calyx, corolla, and central carpels.
Tepal Flower Example
P3+3 A3+3 G(3)
Uses perianth tepals instead of separate sepals and petals.
Many Stamens Example
K5 C5 A∞ G(5)
Caps a many-stamen formula into a readable schematic ring.
What is a floral diagram generator?
A floral diagram generator turns a floral formula into a schematic top-view drawing of a flower. Instead of drawing a realistic blossom, it maps sepals, petals or tepals, stamens, and carpels into botanical whorls so students can see the structure behind a formula.
Why this tool parses formulas instead of using image AI
- Floral diagrams are notation diagrams, so part count, whorl order, grouping, fusion, mother axis, and bract placement need to stay predictable.
- The tool reads common formula patterns such as K4 C4 A2+4 G(2), K(5) C(5) A5 G(2), and P3+3 A3+3 G(3).
- It renders SVG directly in the browser, so the same formula always produces the same diagram and does not use image-generation credits.
- SVG, PNG, and CSV export make the result reusable in botany worksheets, lab notes, slides, and study guides.
Supported notation
- K for calyx or sepals, C for corolla or petals, and P for perianth or tepals.
- A for androecium or stamens, and G for gynoecium or carpels.
- Numbers set part counts, plus signs create grouped whorls, and parentheses mark fused parts.
- The infinity symbol or the word many is capped into a readable schematic ring.
Floral diagram vs floral formula
A floral formula is compact text notation. A floral diagram is the visual plan that shows how the organs are arranged around the flower. Use both together when teaching flower morphology, comparing plant families, or checking whether a student can translate symbolic notation into a diagram.
How to make a floral diagram from a formula
- Enter a formula using K, C, P, A, and G notation.
- Choose whether to show labels, the mother axis and bract, and fusion rings.
- Check the parsed structure list to confirm counts and fusion.
- Download the final floral diagram as SVG or PNG, or export the parsed whorl table as CSV.
