Definition: The word 'anthocerotaceae' refers to a group of flowering plants with conical, often rounded or bulbous flowers that can reach up to 2-3 feet tall. These include various species of orchids, which are commonly found in gardens and nurseries. The definition goes beyond just their flower arrangement: anthocerotaceae is also known as 'planting seeds,' because they are native to wet, damp places like rainforests and open forests.
