It’s weird to me that flowering plants appeared so recently.
Of course, 160 million years ago isn’t that recent. But for most of the period when vascular plants have existed, there were no flowers, and in particular, there was no grass. What would the world look like with no grass?
Earth is 4.54 billion years old, so it’s only had flowering plants for 3.5% of its lifetime. Strange to think about.
