From this, we can see that "Nature" has no intent, no conscience, no reason, no knowledge... is not an entity.

So flowers have come about through such physical phenomena, without any intent, reason to be, nor design.

Ok, your belief is fair enough. Still, you can admit that the umbrella of physical phenomena in the universe are smarter than we are and can create lots of amazing and beautiful things that we can't.
I don't think "smart" has anything to do with it.
Complex, yes... that is why we can't replicate it... we like simple things.... Einstein himself said so:
