Flower position within plants influences reproductive success both directly and via phenology
Our results highlight the important role of ontogenetic contingency for within-individual variation in phenology and reproductive success. As the spatial distribution of reproductive structures affects both within-plant trait distributions and fitness, it is a likely target for natural selection.
