During the Mississippian period (approximately 358 to 323 million years ago), the dominant plant life included ferns, cycads, and the early ancestors of conifers. The period was characterized by extensive forests comprised mainly of seed ferns, which thrived in the warm, humid climate. Additionally, the evolution of vascular plants allowed for greater diversity and complexity in terrestrial ecosystems during this time.
