I work in a flower shop, sometimes we call flowers blooms or blossoms.
I've heard of them being called buds also. I think that would be fun and the smell would be nice too.
It is! Flowers facilitate outcrossing so you can crossbreed many kinds of flowers.
We wouldn't be alive without them I would think, since bees use flowers to pollinate.  Amazing how thinks are interconnected.
It really is, flowers are so interesting some actually have evolved to attract animals to help spreed their pollen.
And they are so nice to look at also. I have some rose bushes that smell wonderful in the summer.
I have some tulips that come out every so often. though they are all different they can be considered to parts the reproductive and the vegetative part.
They even have attraction methods to attract bees, like the bee orchid, in how they look.
Even though we love looking at them the only thing a flower wants is to reproduce.
