Asteraceae – Angiosperm Family
Asteraceae, commonly known as the aster, daisy, or sunflower family, is one of the largest plant families characterized by composite flower heads and alternate leaves. It includes a wide variety of economically important plants, such as sunflowers, daisies, and dandelions. Members of this family are used for food (lettuce, artichokes), medicine (chamomile, arnica), and ornamental purposes. Their ecological importance lies in providing nectar and habitat for pollinators, contributing to biodiversity and ecosystem health.
