Wedding Flowers
:
Some flowers with both stamens and a pistil are capable
of self-fertilization, which does increase the chance of producing
seeds but limits genetic variation. The extreme case of self-fertilization
occurs in flowers that always self-fertilize, such as many
dandelions.
Conversely, many species of plants have ways of preventing
self-fertilization. Unisexual male and female flowers on the
same plant may not appear or mature at the same time, or pollen
from the same plant may be incapable of fertilizing its ovules.
The latter flower types, which have chemical barriers to their
own pollen, are referred to as self-sterile or self-incompatible
The general assumption is that the function of flowers, from
the start, was to involve other animals in the reproduction
process. Pollen can be scattered without bright colors and
obvious shapes, which would therefore be a liability, using
the plant's resources, unless they provide some other benefit.
One proposed reason for the sudden, fully developed appearance
of flowers is that they evolved in an isolated setting like
an island, or chain of islands, where the plants bearing them
were able to develop a highly specialized relationship with
some specific animal , the way many island species develop
today.

Floristry, flower arranging, floral arrangement, floral design
or floral arts is the art of creating flower arrangements
in vases, bowls and baskets, or making bouquets and compositions
from cut flowers, foliage, herbs, ornamental grasses and other
botanical materials. Often the terms "floral design"
and "floristry" are considered synonymous. Florists
are people who work with flowers and plants, generally at
the retail level. The term is not to be confused with floristics.
Floristry is also not to be confused with horticulture.
