Rose (panel)
A rose is a woody perennial flowering plant of the genus Rosa, in the
family Rosaceae, or the flower it bears. There are over three hundred
species and tens of thousands of cultivars.
Botany
The flowers of most species have five petals, with the exception of Rosa
sericea, which usually has only four. Each petal is divided into two
distinct lobes and is usually white or pink, though in a few species
yellow or red. Beneath the petals are five sepals (or in the case of some
Rosa sericea, four).
Tulips are a genus of spring-blooming perennial herbaceous bulbiferous
geophytes. The flowers are usually large, showy and brightly colored,
generally red, pink, yellow, or white.
Description
The tulip’s flowers are usually large and are actinomorphic (radially
symmetric) and hermaphrodite (contain both male and female
characteristics), generally erect, or more rarely pendulous, and are
arranged more usually as a single terminal flower. In structure, the
flower is generally cup or star shaped.
Helianthus annuus, the common sunflower, is a large annual forb of the
genus Helianthus. The name sunflower may derive from the flower’s head’s
shape, which resembles the sun.
Description
The plant has an erect rough-hairy stem, reaching typical heights of 3
metres. Sunflower leaves are broad, coarsely toothed, rough and mostly
alternate. What is often called the "flower" of the sunflower is actually
a "flower head" or pseudanthium of numerous small individual five-petaled
flowers.
