Flower Families

There are about 2400 different flora species in Israel. Flower families is a convenient primary grouping of all those plants that share an association of enough distingishing features to suggest common origin. There are some flower families that are closely related while others seem very different. Though characteristics may vary, certain traits are shared.Fortunately, there are normally enough external features to identify a plant. Using noted characters of petals, sepals and leaves, the plant families are divided into eleven groups.
