Explore the colors of the rainbow as we investigate the purpose of colors of the garden! In this Colors of Nature, hour long, virtual zoom seminar, participants will learn why are flowers so vibrant, what does black and orange mean when seen on a butterfly visiting a milkweed plant? We’ll take a look at the various pigments found in nature and their functions during this virtual presentation highlighting the photography of Marissa Jacobs (creator of The Art of Ecology).

We shall go over:

• Purpose of pigments in the natural world
• Xanthophylls, Chlorophyll, Anthocyanins, and Carotenoids
• Native Plants
• …and more!

Plenty of time will be given at the end for question & answer time.
