plant kingdom

All vegetation collectively

The plant kingdom is the broad category of living things that includes all plants—from mosses and ferns to flowering trees.

In biological classification, it's one of the major divisions of life, distinguished from animals, fungi, and bacteria.

Plants typically photosynthesize, converting sunlight into energy.

The plant kingdom contains over 300,000 known species.
