I’m in Madrid, Spain this week and am admiring the gorgeous public #floral displays here. Spotted on a #flower tower, this vibrant flowering Coleus kong (Lamiaceae), whose leaves can span 6” across, don’t need trimming, and can easily fill a pot or empty #garden space #BloomScrolling #Gardening

Activation of anthocyanin biosynthesis in Utricularia gibba depends on nitrogen starvation and light exposure #FlavonoidFriday

Utricularia gibba traps exhibiting red coloration, presumably due to anthocyanin accumulation. Reference: https://doi.org/10.64898/2026.08.27.747637
