Non-Flowering Plants
The plants which do not bear flowers are called non-flowering plants.
Conifers, ferns, mosses and liverworts, etc., are the examples of
non-flowering plants (Figure 1.16). Conifers have needle-like leaves. They
reproduce by seeds developed in their cones. Leaves of ferns are divided
into leaflets. Ferns reproduce by spores developed on the underside of
their leaves. Mosses and liverworts have simple stem and tiny leaves. They
reproduce by spores developed in their capsules.
