The second flower I came across was a yellow rose. This rose had many soft pedals that slowly opened up from the center out. What i noticed was that the pedals covered the stamen and pistol of the flower. This could be to protect the flower from other predators. Bees would have a hard time maneuvering inside the flower to get pollen and reproduce. The flower has a thin green stem and adapted to have many sharp edged leaves to protect itself.
The third flower that I observed was a small pink and white flower that had white pedals. inside the flower is a hot pink tunnel to attract the bees to get the pollen. The inside has its stamen and pistol for bees and hummingbirds and other insects that get their food off of the flower and also aid in sexual reproduction. The flower has small brown stems that are vines and anchor itself to walls. There are many dark leaves with light green on its edges for photosynthesis. The flower, especially the hot pink inside, is fuzzy so that light reflects off of the fuzziness and the flower does not dehydrate.
