Types Of Flowers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
There are millions of types of plants and flowers on our planet. Normally, the most beautiful flowers are chosen to decorate gardens, interiors, public spaces and buildings. However, do you know how many different types of flowers exist<\/strong> and how they are classified?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you want to know the types of flowers there are, this is your post ????<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Classification of flower types<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
You have to know that there are two types of plants. On the one hand, being more primitive, there are gymnosperms. <\/strong>These plants do not produce flowers at any stage of their life. On the other hand, being the group that we are going to see in depth, there are angiosperms<\/strong> . These plants bloom when they reach their adult stage. The flowers are used as a means of pollination and reproduction. Thanks to the fact that insects and other animals drink the nectar of one flower and go to another, they are able to fertilize the plant and reproduce to expand its distribution area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Within angiosperms there are two types of flowers very easily recognizable to the naked eye. First, we find the monocots<\/strong> . These plants have only one cotyledon and their flowers usually have petals in a multiple number of three. Second, we have the dicotyledons<\/strong> . These plants, as the name suggests, have two cotyledons and the flowers have petals in a multiple number of four or five.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are also other ways to classify flowers, especially for plants that are annual. We find perennial, biennial and ephemeral plants. Each corresponds to the time in which they remain in bloom. Some gardeners classify the plants depending on their type of reproduction. If it is sexual or asexual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It should be mentioned that it is important that when trying to classify a monocotyledonous or dicotyledonous plant, it must be taken into account that many petals can be united between them<\/strong> or the leaves to some parts of the plant and their differentiation is confusing. However, sorting flowers in this way is very basic. Something more complex is needed to differentiate them well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
