In the light we humans see, this flower is uniformly yellow, with a hint of variance in the centre. In UV this variance is very dark and different from the outer areas of the petals. This is what the pollinating insects see. It’s like the bull’s eye of a dart-board. If you come here you […]
Ingen store overraskelser i UV lys – slik som eksempelvis potentillaer og skjermplanter, som ofte viser helt mørke områder vi ikke finner igjen i lyset vi mennesker ser.
Native range is Mexico to Paraguay.
I found none in bloom, so I wonder when they do bloom, as soon the locations they grow in will be under water again. Native range is Mexico to Paraguay.
The soil on this part of Pantanal (between Corumbá and Miranda) is in many places fine sand – just like a desert or a beach. Just after a couple of hundred metres on the private road leading to Pousada Xaraés you’ll encounter the deep sand – only passable by large trucks and 4x4s. It was […]

Hver frøkapsel inneholder rikelig med frø som lett føres med vinden som tar tak de de flortynne fjonene. Av den grunn er det svært vanskelig å bli kvitt mjølkene om de først har slått seg ned. For min del er det ikke noe behov for å bekjempe denne, da den aldri blir dominerende her.
Krattmjølke er som ugress og regne, og særdeles spredningsdyktig. Likevel lar jeg den stå de fleste steder da den har flotte blomster og frøkapsler, samt er en del av næringsmangfoldet til pollinatorer.
