==Seeds in the Bible==
In the [[Old Testament]], the [[Book of Genesis]] contains an explanation of how all plant forms began:
<blockquote>"And [[God]] said, Let the [[earth]] bring forth [[grass]], the [[herb]] yielding seed, and the [[fruit]] [[tree]] yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after its kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after its kind: and God saw that it was good. And the evening and the morning were the third day."<ref>[[King James Bible]], [[KJV]], [[Genesis]] 1:12,13, 1611.</ref></blockquote>
