A flower, sometimes known as a bloom or blossom, is the reproductive structure found in flowering plants. The biological function of a flower is to mediate pollination. The grouping of flowers on a plant are called the inflorescence. In addition to serving as the reproductive organs of flowering plants, flowers have long been admired and used by humans, mainly to beautify their environment but also as a source of food. Many flowers have important symbolic meanings in Western culture. Red roses are given as a symbol of love, beauty, and passion. Because of their varied and colorful appearance, flowers have long been a favorite subject of visual artists.
