Gas exchange and stem hydraulic conductance were measured on at least six individuals of five woody species. These data were used to compare floral and leaf water loss and to evaluate whether floral water loss was limited by stem hydraulic conductance.Attribution 3.0 United Stateshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/us/inflorescenceflowerfloralleafgas exchangexylemhydraulicsDatasethttps://doi.org/10.13020/mx5w-vv32
