Plants arrived on land before animals during the course of evolution. The colonization of land by plants began around 470 million years ago during the Ordovician period. The first land plants were simple, non-vascular plants like mosses and liverworts, which did not have true roots, stems, or leaves but were adapted to survive in damp environments.
Animals followed later, with the first land animals being arthropods, such as millipedes and early insects, which appeared around 420-450 million years ago during the Silurian period. The evolution of plants played a crucial role in preparing the land environment for animal life by stabilizing the soil and contributing to the formation of a breathable atmosphere through photosynthesis.
Just evolved and already saws wood and makes furniture, paper, ink and something to write with. Surprised they don’t rule the world . Perhaps they evolved into the reptile people that some think exist.
I thought originally it was an invasion of the land, not a ‘rush right in’ sale. Although, come to think of it, it’s often what happens when the first migrants arrive – they sell what they’ve already bought up to the late-comers …

If Darwin were doing his observations today, I wonder if he’d think we were still evolving?
