"FLOWERS"

What are flowers?

A flower is the part of a plant that produces pollen or develops seeds within an enclosing fruit or both. And we must keep in mind that not all flowering plants always produce flower. And plants usually flower during flowering season; it can be for a brief period sometimes or not at all in cases. Only seed-bearing plants bear true flowers. And plants like ferns, mosses, algae and fungi don’t make seeds at all. Mother Nature has presented and blessed us with this beautiful creation which fulfills our life with beauty and pleasure, and brings us good mood and emotional health at any time of the year. Flowers represent number of feelings and emotions and people use them on several occasions. Not only for celebratory and festive purposes but also in everyday life. Flowers are a true picture of perfection. Each flower is shrouded with illusive and mysterious appearance which attracts and lightens up the mood of every individual whether a man or a woman.
