Did you know there are
over 250,000 different
kinds of wild flowers?
Plants which produce
flowers are known as
angiosperms. All plants
that have certain features
in common, like they all
produce seeds and
contain tissues which
transport fluid around the
plant. Petals are delicate,
often brightly colored,
and reproductive parts.

Flowers have male parts
and female parts. Male
reproductive parts are
called stamens. Stamens
are reproductive organs.
Each stamen is made up
of a pod-like anther.
Anthers contain pollen
sacs, which split open to
release grains of pollen.

Female reproductive as
carpel or pistal is made up
of the stigma, style, and
ovary. The stigma is the
sticky top carpel, which
traps pollen grains that
touch it. The style is part
of the carpel. which joins
the stigma to the ovary.
The ovary is the female
reproductive body which,
in plants, contains ovules.
Ovules are the female
cells of a plant, which
develop into seeds after
fertilization.
