That's why I suggested splitting them. Racemes, spikes, panicles etc. are not flower forms, they are types of inflorescences. It's a bit confusing having them listed together in the same category with flower forms (although, technically, a compound flower is a type of inflorescence as well).

Speaking of types of inflorescences, I:

misspelled "Thyrse" above
forgot "Catkin"
and should have said "Spadix" rather than Spathe (a spathe the sheath covering a spadix, the spadix is the actual inflorescence)
