AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

"These flowers can be said to be '100 million years old'. 100 million years ago these flowers were wrapped in amber when they were growing, so they were well preserved. These flowers have bloomed since the Mesozoic era when dinosaurs flourished, and their flowers, leaves, Traits such as the coat of hair show high adaptability to frequent wildfires.

The flower is the reproductive organ of conifers (coniferous trees). Although it is traditionally called a flower, it is not a "flower" in modern botany. It does not have perianth, is unisexual, and is often monoecious. The microsporophylls are clustered into male flowers, which are small, have microspore sacs, produce pollen grains, and spread by wind.

Every amber we’ll use PE box to keep it save and easy to collect them.
