botany, like all science, uses math to find correlations to predict and clarify future results.

The basic use of math is statistical; mutation rates, quantitative genetics, modeling, dendrochronology, etc.

The more creative parts with math are the Fibonacci numbers in the growth spirals, the fractals in the leaves, and the multiples of 3 found in petals in monocots.
