The oldest known flowering plant is Archaefructus, which lived around 125 million years ago. Fossils of this plant were discovered in China and show that it had both flowers and seeds.

Wow, 125 million years ago! It's amazing to think that Archaefructus was one of the earliest plants to have flowers and seeds. Nature's evolution is mind-blowing, and it's so cool that fossils can give us a glimpse into that ancient world.
