Flowers

Flowers play an integral role in the movement of the seasons, providing primary-produced sugars for insects, habitat for microorganisms, and seeds for propagation of plant species. A flower is the sexually reproducing organ of a plant, whereby genetics are intermixed and evolution can occur. All higher life forms, such as animals and humans, could not exist without flowers and the primary producers which first fix the sunlight into edible forms.

Flowers also specialize in certain nutrients and chemicals in surprising arrays. In fact, plants and flowers are evolved intelligence for the transposition of water and the self-directing of certain elements, molecules, and polymers.

Different plants may have surprisingly diverse sets of polymers, some of which are poisonous, others curative, still more psychoactive. In short, flowers offer a natural medicine cabinet for the discerning botanist, a ready cure for nearly all of nature's ills. In the Amazon, for just one example, certain cures are made by shamans for diabetes in modern science is still incapable of replicating them, although their effects have been observed.

This is one prime reason, among many more, of preserving rain forests. There are so many species of plants in such areas, it is believed by some scientists that less than five percent of all plant species in the Amazon have been classified, and still many more have been made extinct.
