Flowers are, of course, the reproductive structures (or, as we like to say, the "naughty bits") of many plants. Not all plants produce flowers - conifers, ferns, mosses, and algae don't, for example - but in many places flowering plants are the most conspicuous.
Flowers are usualy seen as attractive, decorative, and symbolic of good things like love, happiness, sympathy, and celebration.
The plants might have a slightly different view of things.
Only the green algae are actually plants. All other algae groups, including the red algae, brown algae, golden algae, yellow-green algae, and cyanobacteria (also known as blue-green algae), are not plants.
It seems the one thing algae have in common is straightforward descriptive names.
