Do all plants ';seed';?? Can anyone tell me how this process works for things such as ivy, for example.

Good morning. Yes all plants go to seed. It is natures way of reproducing. Some plants however reproduce in other ways. With grasses and some other plants likr Iris they have rhizomes wich spead. A rhizome is sort of like a root but can start new plants from a parent plant without needing to go to seed. Ivy is kind of the same way. As the ivy grows it will set roots down along its stem wich will start a new plant. If you ever had atropical foliage plant called a philodenron then you know that you can cut part of the stem off simply put it in water and within a week or so you will see new roots stating from the cutting. Hope this helped some. have a beautiful dayDo all plants ';seed';?? Can anyone tell me how this process works for things such as ivy, for example.
All spermatophytes produce seed, but some propagate very effectively asexually by cuttings, offsets, layering, runners etc. In many cases, the better a plant is at asexual reproduction, the rarer sexual reproduction is for that species, and vice-versa.


English Ivy has a juvenile form, and that is the viney ivy most of us associate with the word ';ivy';. But as an ivy plant gets older it may with time change into its adult form. This form is more branchlike. Most commonly seen on an object, such as a tree, that has been ivy-covered for several years, it looks like an evergreen shrub with the old trunk of its host growing through the middle of it. The branches are growing straight out like a shrub and the leaves are much more rounded and not very ivy-like. You probably wouldn't readily recognize it as ivy. In this form the ivy will produce flowers and seeds.


Holly berries are the fruit of the holly tree or holly shrub. They contain the seed, similar to a cherry holding a cherry seed inside the fleshy fruit. The flowers of the hollies are usually quite small, maybe less than 6 mm, and colored light green or light yellow. The bees that polinate them are attracted by their pleasant fragrance, not by their large size or bright color. The red fruit is to attract birds to eat the berries. The birds pass the seed out the other end and thus distribute the species. I think the Supreme Being also wanted to brighten up our dreary winters.Do all plants ';seed';??

I'm no expert, but for the plants that don't ';seed'; I think they have what you call ';spores';. An example of a group of plants with spores would be ferns.
