staminal
Of lasting power
Staminal is an adjective relating to stamens, the pollen-producing reproductive organs of flowering plants.
In botany, it describes structures or characteristics associated with these male parts: a staminal tube is formed when filaments fuse together, and staminal hairs are tiny growths on the stamen.
The word occasionally appears in older texts meaning relating to stamina or vital energy, though this usage is now rare.
