Greetings Card : Gorse flower bud, SEM
Cards from Science Photo Library
Gorse flower bud, SEM
Gorse (Ulex europaeus) flower bud, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). One of the petals (yellow) is seen enclosed in the flower casing (calyx). The calyx consists of sepals (green), leaf-like structures that protect the flower bud. Trichomes are seen on the sepal surfaces, giving them a hairy appearance compared to the smooth surface of the petal. Magnification: x20 when printed at 10 centimetres across

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate beauty of a Gorse flower bud in exquisite detail. The colored scanning electron micrograph (SEM) reveals the delicate features of this botanical wonder. At first glance, one can see the vibrant yellow petal enclosed within the protective casing known as the calyx. The calyx consists of green sepals that resemble leaf-like structures, shielding and safeguarding the developing flower bud. Upon closer inspection, trichomes adorn the surface of these sepals, giving them a distinct hairy appearance compared to the smooth texture of the petal. These tiny hair-like structures play an essential role in protecting against external elements and potential predators. The magnification level used for this print allows viewers to appreciate every minute detail when printed at 10 centimeters across. It showcases nature's remarkable ability to create such complexity even on a microscopic scale. This image not only highlights the captivating aesthetics but also serves as a valuable resource for botany enthusiasts and researchers alike. Its false-colored presentation adds another layer of visual appeal while providing crucial insights into reproductive processes and biological characteristics specific to Ulex europaeus or Gorse flowers. Science Photo Library has once again captured nature's wonders through their lens, offering us an opportunity to marvel at its intricacies and deepen our understanding of plant biology.
