Ferns lack the flowers or seeds of the angiosperms. Instead they reproduce by forming spores in two phases, the sporophytic and a gametophytic phase. The second, gametophytic, phase is actually a free-living organism, not a seed.
No. Angiosperms are defined as flowering plants. Ferns neither flower, fruit, or have seeds. They reproduce by releasing spores, a primitive but effective way of spreading out. They belong to the group Pteridophyta. SOURCES: <a href="http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Angiosperms">angiosperm</a>

Angiosperms have flowers, fruits and seeds. However ferns, horsetails, and club mosses do not have either of these.

Angiosperms, or flowering plants, possess two unique features: flowers and fruit. Flowers facilitate sexual reproduction by attracting pollinators and facilitating the transfer of pollen, while fruit protects the developing seeds and aids in their dispersal. These characteristics distinguish angiosperms from other plant groups, such as gymnosperms, ferns, and mosses.
No Ferns are not annuals, annuals are angiosperms which have a short life-cycle (one season/ year or less). Ferns belong to the Plantae division Pteridophyta
Gymnosperms, such as pine trees, and angiosperms, such as hibiscus, both sport an important evolutionary feature that ferns do not. Gymnosperms and angiosperms both make seeds through sexual reproduction, while ferns produce spores through a type of asexual reproduction. (the latin word sperma means seed.)
Mosses evolved first among these groups, appearing around 470 million years ago. They were followed by ferns, which emerged roughly 360 million years ago. Gymnosperms, such as conifers, appeared next around 319 million years ago, and angiosperms, or flowering plants, evolved later, approximately 140 million years ago. Thus, the correct order of evolution is mosses, ferns, gymnosperms, and then angiosperms.
The four main groups of plants are mosses, ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms. Mosses are non-vascular plants, ferns are seedless vascular plants, gymnosperms have naked seeds (like pine trees), and angiosperms have seeds enclosed in fruits (flowering plants).
