Spring is in the air in the Northern Hemisphere, so we decided to sprinkle some color on Facebook this week by sharing photos of wildflowers! Flowering plants are the largest and most diverse group of plants, accounting for up to 90% of plant species!
They are often exquisitely beautiful, can be fantastically weird, and may exude pleasant or nasty fragrances. They are an important source of food for an innumerable amount of creatures, including humans. Flowering plants are also a source of medicines, fibers, timber, ornamentals, and so many other commercial products. Flowers truly make our world a better place! #JungleDragon #Wildflowers #Floweringplants #Angiosperms
