Seagrass

Seagrasses are the only flowering plants which grow in marine environments. There are about 60 species of fully marine seagrasses which belong to four families, all in the order Alismatales.

Seagrasses evolved from terrestrial plants which recolonised the ocean 70 to 100 million years ago.
