The wild form has female blossoms or anthers with so-called gall blossoms, showing rudimentary ovules.

The gall wasp, a very small insect of about 1 mm, is responsible for pollination.

Due to its short ovipositor, the wasp can only lay its egg on the short pistil of the gall flower until the ovary starts to swell and by doing so safeguards the continued existence of the wasp.
