	IT'S SPRING!!! What is your favorite plant? Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

Well OK, it's spring in the Northern Henisphere.


Quick post rules:

Fungi ARE NOT plants, they are more closely related to animals than to plants.

Most algae ARE NOT plants, all but green algae are protists, other algae were protozoans that captured different free Cyanobacteria (like red algae), or captured a green alga (like in Eugena).

My favorite is Gingko biloba, the Maidenhair tree, famous for its leaves, which are said to improve memory. It is the last surviving species of the highly successful Gingkophytes, gymnosperms who dominated the temperate woodlands in the Triassic and Jurassic. They can live for 6,000 years and doo very well in the cities since they can tolerate pollution amazingly well. But remember to get a male, the females' fruit smells like rancid butter.

The flesh of the fruit smells like rotten meat. Otherwise it's all right.
