INTRODUCTION

Flowering Plants

Flowering plants, also known as angiosperms, are plants that produce flowers and bear fruits containing seeds. Their defining characteristic is their ability to produce flowers, which contain the reproductive organs of the plant and are often brightly colored and fragrant. Flowering plants are found in almost every terrestrial habitat on Earth and are the most diverse group of land plants, making up about 90% of all vascular plants.

Conifers

Conifers are gymnosperms, a subgroup of vascular plants distinguished by the fact that their seeds are not enclosed in a fruit.
