Interesting that we see a small spectrum of light, but that suits us and the colours we see enable us to carry out a wide range of tasks, it’s how we evolved.

But on the early morning or late evening light, some plants hint at the spectrum we can’t see. They take on colours and hues that only the insects can see and appreciate long after we have gone to bed.

The vividness of some plants is spectacular.
