FLOWERS ARE A MIRACLE

SUNFLOWER.....






I BELIEVE FLOWERS TO BE A MIRACLE


I BELIEVE FLOWERS TO BE A MIRACLE
FROM THEIR SEPAL DOWN THROUGH THEIR STEM
WITH THEIR MANY PETALS BRIGHTLY COLORED
YELLOW DUSTY POLLEN DEEP WITHIN.

THEIR DELICATE BEAUTY OUR EYES TO GAZE
GOD PRESENTS THESE GIFTS FOR ALL
I BELIEVE FLOWERS TO BE A MIRACLE
FROM THE LARGE DOWN TO THE SMALL.

Four parts of a flower -> arranged in rings inside each other.

Sepal - Protected the flower when it was in bud. The sepal is often green.

Stamen - The male part of the plant which produces the pollen (yellow, dust like). (anthers -> tops of stamen, filaments -> bottom part)

Petals - Brightly coloured in insect pollinated plants. Small (or non-existent) in wind pollinated plants.

Carpel -The female part of the plant which produce fruit once pollination has taken place. The fruit contains seeds. (Carpels. stigma -> top where it gets pollen, style -> pollen travels down, ovary -> where fruit is formed)
