The most commonly referred to birth flowers for February are the violet and primrose. The violet, which stems from the viola genus is a symbol of modesty, humility and faithfulness. Violets are named after their blue-purple color but they can also be found in yellow, blue and cream colors.

Chinese Wisteria, like all other types of wisteria, is poisonous. Its vines also grow quite rapidly, so some classify it as invasive, especially when compared to the less aggressive American variant. But, when it blooms, it develops clusters of drooping, blue-ish purple flowers.
There are hundreds of species of Corydalis, and some can be yellow, green, blue, or pink. But varieties like Corydalis buschi, Corydalis cava, Corydalis scouleri, Corydalis linstowiana, and Corydalis pauciflora are known for having purple flowers.
False indigo is also known as blue false indigo. If you go to the store or order seeds looking for purple flowers, you can rest assured that the flowers will be purple, as long as you make sure to purchase Baptisia australis. There are also varieties of baptisia that may have purple flowers.
Globe thistles grow well in shallow, rocky soil and are also tolerant of relatively dry conditions. Their flower heads are perched on the end of long, skinny stems. The flowers are spiky globes with dark blue to purple centers and many prickly whitish spines. They are quite attractive to both the human eyes and certain butterflies.
The pygmy iris, as Iris Pumila is commonly known, has blades of green foliage and deep purple flowers with a typically light and lacy texture. White and purple flowers are the most common, though some varieties may have blue, white, cream, or varied color patterns. They are perhaps a natural hybrid of Iris pseudopumila and Iris attica.
The flowers range from white to purple and blue, with varying shades in between being common. The sturdy stems develop dense, tight spikes of miniature, bell-shaped flowers, and blooms can occur from spring to fall, depending on the variety.
A North American native that was first domesticated more than 2000 years ago, the sunflower has been the subject of fascination for growers and observers alike. To the Native Americans it was a source not only of nourishment, but of medicine and building material. The Aztecs offered the golden blossoms to their god of war, and then to the Spanish conquistadors as a symbol of alliance. The Spanish took the flower to Europe, and from there it was taken to Russia, where it was cultivated for food and oil. It was not until the 19th century that interest in the sunflower returned to mainstream North American society. Since then, it has been a commercial crop, a garden favorite, and beloved of artists like Oscar Wilde, Paul Gauguin, and Vincent Van Gogh. Sunflowers are still grown today in Claude Monet's garden at Giverny.
One of the great joys of taking a countryside walking tour of Italy is finding wild orchids blooming along the trail. Our walking tour guides in Italy know just when and where to spot these exquisite flowers, enriching the experience of a countryside or coastal walking tour in Italy.
Abstract:Epipactis atrorubens (Hoffm.) Besser. is a regionally rare orchid species with highly ornamental properties due to its very beautiful bright flowers, therefore it is of considerable interest as a horticultural plant for use in botanical gardens and greenhouses. The objective of the research was to assess metal accumulation and some pro- and antioxidant reactions in E. atrorubens, colonizing serpentine dumps post asbestos mining. Additionally, some physicochemical properties of substrates, microbiotic characteristics and water status were investigated in orchids growing on two serpentine dumps and in a natural forest habitat of the Middle Urals, Russia. The dump substrates were characterized by the strong stoniness and the high content of Mg, Ni, Cr and Co (by 1.8 times on average) compared to the natural habitat. In these sites, E. atrorubens was characterized by increased mycorrhization. In the rhizome and roots of E. atrorubens the concentrations of most metals studied were considerably higher (more than 4 times on average) than in the leaves. It was found that orchids colonizing serpentine dumps produced more lipid peroxidation products (by 1.4 times on average) in the leaves which was accompanied by the more active synthesis of such non-enzymatic antioxidants as ascorbate, free proline, soluble phenolic compounds (including flavonoids) and non-protein thiols. The study suggests that non-enzymatic antioxidants increased the adaptive potential of E. atrorubens and contributed to its naturalization on serpentine dumps post asbestos mining.Keywords: Orchidaceae; ornamental plant introduction; serpentine outcrops; stressful conditions; adaptive responses; plant water status; redox balance; non-enzymatic antioxidants
We live on a planet pollinated primarily by bees. Bees fertilize most of our favorite flowers, and pollinate a third of the plants we eat. Bumble bees are important pollinators of tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, melons, raspberries, blueberries, cranberries, strawberries, and many other crops, and are the only known pollinators of potatoes worldwide. They are also the exclusive pollinator of several rare and imperiled wildflowers, including native monkshoods and lady's tresses orchids. Without these essential insects, farm productivity would plummet and wildflowers would become extinct. In short, bumblebees and other bees are essential for our own well being and the survival of a good deal of the world's biodiversity.
Some flowers are especially suited for pollination by bumble bees, havingevolved a number of characteristics suited to the creature's girth, behavior,and other attributes. Unlike humans, bees can see ultraviolet; many of theflowers we see as white, they see as ultraviolet. They not only see this colorbut also are attracted to it, making a beeline to flowers in the ultravioletsas well as the blues and purples that dominate one end of the color spectrum,though they're attracted to yellow blossoms, too. Many of these flowers havebizarre wavy lines or leopard-like spots on their petals that serve assignposts pointing the bees toward the nectaries, where nectar is produced andthe insects can satisfy their serious sweet tooth.
In spring, my Shelter Island woodland garden is a wash of pastel purple whenthe violets, bumble bee favorites, bloom among glades of fern I've planted alongpaths and around the house. One side of my patio brushes up against the meadow,which is abuzz with bees in June when the blue wild lupine blooms. The bees arewild about the tall purple spires of blazing stars that bloom in summer. FromSeptember until late October or early November native asters and goldenrods arethe main attractions. On the other side of the patio, my pollinator gardencontinues in a dampish area. Here is a border of wetland bloomers laden withbees (and butterflies) for weeks in summer, including joe pye weed, with hugedomed heads of dusty mauve flowers on eight-foot stems, and sweet pepperbush,with fragrant spikes of white flowers.
They may be irresistible to butterflies, but these perennial plants are also deer-resistant shrubs. Butterfly bush blooms all season long, from early summer to early fall. Its impressive clusters of floral spikes bloom in various colors, so its colorful spray of purple, pink, lavender, blue, yellow, or white flowers and green foliage will look amazing in your garden.
Mountain bluet (Perennial cornflower, Montane knapweed) is a perennial plant with large, bright blue, ray-like flowers and long, lance shaped leaves. It is an escaped garden plant that invades natural areas. This plant can self-seed, which makes it difficult to control.
Myrtle spurge (Donkey tail, Blue spurge) is a short, creeping escaped garden perennial with oval, spiraling blue green stems and yellow-green flowers. It likes dry, disturbed soils where it grows quickly and aggressively, releasing chemicals from its roots which stop other plants from growing near it.
From all-time classics, such as roses, lilies, and sunflowers, to more exotic and funny-named ones, such as forget-me-nots and naked man orchids, learning the Italian words for some of the most common flowers is an important part of learning Italian vocabulary.
