Ok, I need some help here...
1. Why did flowering plants took so long to develop in the Earth's history?
2.What are some of the adaptations that flowering plants have
Earlier kinds of plants were mostly wind pollinated. The change for flowering plants was that flowers were pollinated by animals. The early ones by generalist

Flowers is an evolutionary adaptation of plants for better reproduction. Production of this requires a lot of energy that's why it took so long for them

Petunia
Calibrochoa
Fushcia (plant, not bush)
Also I have flowers
Petunias are definitely not perennial. I haven't heard of Calibrochoa but I will Google it and come back to you. Fushias are usually not perennial, except

Flowering Plant Phylogeny Points to Polyploidy Events | GenomeWeb ...
Yesterday, researchers from Pennsylvania State University and elsewhere brought together existing plant genome sequence information with expressed sequence tag data generated through the Ancestral Angiosperm Genome Project to come up with a phylogeny for flowering plants .
These relationships and genetic patterns point to two polyploidy events occurring much earlier than previously known, they reported. The first of these affected a shared seed plant ancestor around 320 million years ago, while the second polyploidy event occurred within the flowering plant lineage itself around 192 million years ago.
