Fossil evidence shows that flowers have been associated with humans for a long time. Flowers from 93 million years ago have been found, as well as herb-like flowers from 120 million years ago. During the Cretaceous period 146 million years ago, flowering plants were widespread. Archeologists also found pollen from flowers in a burial site with Neanderthals from the Pleistocene era, showing flowers were part of burial rituals long ago.

1. Evidence of flowers that predate the
prehistoric period has been discovered by
Fossil. There are traces of the association of
flowers with humans during the Paleolithic
age.

2. 
 Fossils of magnolia-woody plants that date back more than 93
million years are the first evidence of plant life. More recently,
fossil tiny herb-like flower dating back 120 million years have
been discovered by Paleobotanists.
 Flowering plants, called angiosperms, it is thought that they
had a wide range in most locations in the middle of the
Cretaceous Period ... 146 million years ago. A myriad of images
of parts of flowers preserved in fossils have been found in
Sweden, Portugal, England, and the Gulf Coast of Mexico.
There are a few fresh cut flowers that have a long history.
 The archaeologists found skeletons of a man, two women and a
child buried together in soil containing pollen of flowers in a
cave in Iraq. This association of flowers with the cave dwelling
Neanderthals of the Pleistocene era is indicative of the role of
flowers in burial rituals.

3. 
 People have used flowers to express their feelings,
increase their surroundings, and to commemorate
important rituals and observances. All forms of art,
depict the use of flowers: music, books, paintings,
sculpture, ceramics, tapestries. Some of the most
opulent of reference material are images of flowers,
produced by artists over the centuries 17, 18 and 19,
which deal represents exactly the flowers with her
incredible beauty.

4. 
 Scientists say there are over 270,000 species of flowers that have
been documented and exist in the XXI century. The
evolutionary history of flowers extends over some 125 years.
During this time, a complex assortment of over 125,000
wholesale flower species has been developed.
 During the Victorian era in England the language of flowers
was as important as being "well dressed". For example, the
recognizable smell of a particular flower, plant or perhaps a
scented handkerchief sent its own unique message. But
scientists need to answer basic questions about these marvels of
beauty ... What led to its amazing diversity? Are there flowers
that have not changed much during the evolution of this
planet?
