Have you seen the one about the Red-spotted Purple being a tease-- "Catch Me if You Can"-- using the Habanera?<br />https://youtu.be/3aGI6VfMC_0<br /><br />Yeah, things do tend to arrange themselves for the best in nature, without central planning. I think the flowers know what is good for themselves, and space themselves out so as to be maximally attractive for the sake of their own reproduction. Those that didn't do that may have died out.Aya Katzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07830585801297506770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2974406546323301344.post-53955506578993149392016-09-07T14:26:41.198-07:002016-09-07T14:26:41.198-07:00Loved your natural splendor video, Aya!

It always fascinates me to watch the varieties of plants as they grow, bloom, decline and go to seed, just as the next variety starts its life cycle and takes its place for awhile. Right now the bidens are just exploding everywhere. <br />So, yes, I think some flowers would be ignored for others if they all bloomed at the same time. Maybe nature knows that certain types of calories (nectars) are needed for each part of the season....or something. Interesting thoughts.
