Why Do Plants Display Beautiful Flowers?

Spring time in temperate countries is a time for celebration, the dark cold and wet weather of the dull winter  months are well and truly behind us when spring arrives. For me it’s not just the warmer weather and lengthening days, it’s the promise of  the colour and wafting sweet smells of one of natures greatest gifts to come, the flowers.

Many people take flowers for granted, they don’t really see the true marvel that lies behind a plants necessity to display its wonderful colourful flowers and to emit those irresistible scents. When you do stop and look at the multitude of different flower colours and shapes you see their sheer beauty, all designed to irresistibly attract insects and even small animals to ensure it’s own survival as a species. It prompts you to take a closer look at these marvels of evolution.
