flowers among green grasses


This the picture of rainy season wildflowers which are grown on the ground. The plants are neither too high nor low.


The History of Wildflowers
The lovely flowering plants we all enjoy today were not around when our planet was much younger. In fact, how we arrived at the current botanical diversity we enjoy today is a fascinating story, and begins at the very beginning of time. Here’s a layman’s quick explanation of how it all happened.

Originally, plants were generated from spores, not seeds. The spore process is called sporophtye generation. In this process two types of spores are produced: microspores whose cell structure germinate and develop into males and megaspores which develop into females. This divergent development itself is called meosis. Plants evolved over time through sexual reproduction from these initial processes. In short, very early plants had all they needed to reproduce themselves. More advanced “flowering plants” did not. With their emergence, a whole new grand design was needed, and it required “outside help.”(http://www.wildflowerinformation.org/WhatIsAWildflower.asp)
