Brilliant photos, but why do you think that all the plant groups do not support Evolution? Whether Animal or Plant , primitive and evolved forms can co-exist at a given point of time but in geological past several groups of Life forms simply became extinct. You need to study some basic books dealing with the theory of Evolution.

A great diversity of plants and the different plant families! I can feel a whiff of evolution, and I think so do you!
But one photo or a feeling are no facts, in science you have to deal with facts. But nevertheless the theory of evolution can, like every other theory, never be proved finally as a fact. But the more evidence we may find, the more suggestion is given that this theory explains, what is going on!
Yes I spent a lot of time (since 1996) to study the theory of evolution.
The picture I present, allows me to see the evolution of plants over geological time. In the water, algae, bryophytes immediate side, pyu pteridophytes and angiosperms aves gymno and various adaptations. Euphorbia résinéphéra, Phoenix dactylifera and Acacia gumniféra adapt to drought. Ficus carica resemble equatorial plants. Domestic and wild olive one next to the other Olea europaea L. var sativa and Olea europaea L. var sylvestris shows the history of mankind or humans began to domesticate plants and animals.
In short the photo shows that:
- Primitive forms of plants live in water, it is the thallophytes (without organs).
- The intermediate forms live near water and are dependent on the water to breed, are the bryophytes.
- The conquest of the air environment began with the pteridophytes, which have a sophisticated structure (cormophytes), but they have a primitive sexual mode of reproduction that requires the presence of water.
- The photo shows the mountain in the background = gymnosperms plants evolved structure and have the seeds. And angiosperms = invention of the flower.
- There are different kinds of plants and population diversity, with various adaptations.
Summary: when I stop in this region (in the photo) where I was born and lived and I visit every week, the history of plants, but also animals becomes very apparent to me.
Oui j'ai consacré beaucoup du temps (depuis 1996) à étudier la théorie de l'évolution. La photo que je présente, me permet de voir l'évolution des plantes au cours des temps géologiques. Dans l'eau, les algues, à coté immédiate les bryophytes, pyu ptéridophytes et gymno et angiospermes aves des adaptations diverses. Euphorbia résinéphéra, Phoenix dactylifera et Acacia gumniféra s'adaptent à la sécheresse. Ficus carica ressemblent aux plantes équatoriales. L’olivier domestique et sauvage l’un à coté de l’autre Olea europaea L. var sativa et Olea europaea L. var sylvestris montre l’histoire de l’humanité ou l’homme a commencé à domestiquer les plantes et les animaux. En bref la photo montre que: - Les formes primitives des végétaux vivent dans l’eau, ce sont les thallophytes (sans organes). - Les formes intermédiaires vivent à coté de l’eau et elles sont dépendant de l’eau pour se reproduire, ce sont les bryophytes. - La conquête de milieu aérien a commencé avec les ptéridophytes, qui ont une structure évolués (cormophytes), mais ils possèdent un mode de reproduction sexué primitif qui nécessite la présence de l’eau. - La photo montre dans la montagne en arrière plan les gymnospermes = plantes à structure évoluée et possèdent la graines. Et les angiospermes = invention de la fleur. - Il y a diversité des plantes et des diversités des populations, avec des adaptations diverses. Résumé : lorsque je m’arrête dans cette région (de la photo) où je suis né et vécu et que je visite chaque semaine, l’histoire des plantes, mais aussi des animaux me devient très apparent.
Great observation. But you are missing a lot. Immense variety of forms and a powerful ingredient of Biodiversity: Virus, Bacteria,Protists, Pollen and Spores etc. which are not to be observed by unaided eye. Magnifying devices were not available during Darwin's time and therefore, he missed observing nearly 90% of Life on Planet Earth (a large part of Pre-Cambrian and Early Palaeozoic) the so called "Darwin's Dilemma" Best of luck and do peep into at least high power Light Microscope and Scanning Electron Microscope and include the multitude of Life which is/was flourishing in the Sea.
