Blommor som imiterar för att attrahera
Lustiga blommor
Blommor tar till diverse knep för att bli pollinerade. Deras vackra färger och former signalerar att de är fulla av läcker nektar. Ibland imiterar de djur eller figurer för att attrahera specifika beundrare. Vissa blommor är till exempel mer attraktiva för bin, andra för fjärilar. Som en bonus får vi människor något vackert att titta på.
