A flower is the reproductive structure of most plants. They are often brightly colored and contain nectar to attract animals to pollinate them; once pollinated flowers develop into a fruit containing seeds. Because flowers are often attractive to look at and smell, they are also grown for use as gifts and decoration.

Edosian orchids were a type of flower native to Cardassia. Tolan Garak, and later his son Elim Garak, had a passion for the orchids. When the Orchid's flower was cross-pollinated with the flower of the White Star of Night it created a deadly toxic fatal to anyone who inhaled it. (DS9 novel: A Stitch in Time)

In 2370, Worf bought Deanna Troi a bunch of flowers, but dropped them as he walked into her quarters finding her and Will Riker engaged in a pillow fight. Deanna quickly collected the flowers off the floor, explaining the innocence of the situation. (TNG - The Space Between comic: "Strategy")

Later in 2370, when Jean-Luc Picard visited Boothby the Starfleet Academy gardener, Boothby picked out a flower from the Academy grounds' flowerbeds for Picard as a parting gift. Unfortunately, Picard dropped the flower moments later while attempting to avoid the phaser beams of a Tellarite assassin. (TNG - The Space Between comic: "An Inconvenient Truth")

In 2376 Quark gave Ro Laren a bunch of green Argelian flowers when she was in the Infirmary after receiving injuries in a Jem'Hadar attack. (DS9 novel: Avatar, Book One)
