Flower: a beautiful gift of nature

A commonly asked question is- What are flowers? are they useful? Why they are so beautiful. Similar questions rose in my mind today, and i was lucky enough to get the answers to these questions. Now i share the answers with my fellow readers:

Flowers are the beatiful gifts of nature that adorn the gardens of many people. They are like the ornaments that beautify the women, or like the lights and candles that adornd the houses of people. They are the ideal gifts for anyone, maybe the girlfriend, mother, father , sister, brother, the ill person, the healthy person, or anyone.


Flowers are not only beautiful but of a lot of importance too. They are used in making perfumes, used in bouques, and many other places. The bees suck the nectar of the flowers to make honey. For the plants, the flowers are the reproductive organs that contain the male and female gametes that ultimately make seeds.

"when a beautiful present is the need of the hour,
the idealest thing is the flower."
