Heard spelling
inflorescance
Spelled inflorescence. an unstressed vowel
The vowel before the final -nce is an e.
Inflorescence, not inflorescance.
It is unstressed and close to nothing in speech, but the family it belongs to settles it: adolescence, convalescence, effervescence, obsolescence. All take an e, because all of them come through Latin -escentia.
