The variability in floral attributes was studied in 30 strains of horsegram. The flowers were bisexual, complete, zygomorphic and papilionaceous. The calyx was gamosepalous, having five sepals united at the base, forming an involucre. The corolla was polypetalous having five petals in vexillary aestivation. The androecium consisted of ten stamens which were in diadelphous condition. The gynoecium was simple and monocarpellary. There was a wide range of vanation in the area of standard petal, length of filament, carpel length and number of ovules per flower.
