The present study was taken up with two popular bunch type groundnut varieties namely POL 1 and TMV 2, to assess the inter-relationship of seed size with pattern of flowering and total flower production. The inter-relationship between seed size and both the total number of flowers and their rate of production studied had revealed the existence of very high positive correlation in both the cultivars. The plants from the largest seeds produced 68.57 and 22.36% more flowers, over those from the smallest seeds, respectively in POL 1 and TMV 2
