Wild Flowers




Naturalized species are those that were once introduced to an area and eventually became generally seen as native. Introduced species or exotic species are used to call flowers that do not occur naturally thrive in the area which can become sometimes invasive species when it competes with other plants. Native species refer to flowers that naturally grow in a specific area. Instead of using this term, scientists use terms like native species, introduced species, invasive species and naturalized species are being used.

To refrain from ambiguity, scientists do not use the term wildflowers and dissuade people from using this term. The term suggests that the plant is more likely not a hybrid or a selected cultivar which is in any mean varying from the way it looks in the wild as a native plant, despite thriving in its not natural environment. The reason for this is that those who commercially sell seeds used the term so they can profit more than labeling the seeds based on its name and origin. But you might be surprised to find wild flowers are merchandised in seed packets. Wildflowers, as the term implies, are flowers that grows wild, these are flowers that are not purposely seeded or planted.

But still, there are many flowers that grow naturally. Way back the earliest civilizations, humans have already cultivated flowers. Most flowers we are familiar with are cultivated by a human hand.
