Best Answer

When seeds are dispersed by explosion, the force of the explosion sends seeds scattering in all different directions. The following is a list of plants in which this method of dispersal occurs: Broom, Eurphorbia, Geranium, Viola, Ceanothus, Oxalis, Lupin, Erodium, and Lathyrus. Please refer to the Related Link to view pictures of each of the plants and to read more information about the dispersal of seeds in each.
