Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A cluster of Elephant's ears (Bergenia crassifolia) flowers photographed in visible light (top), ultraviolet (middle), and infrared (bottom).

In visible light the flowers have pink petals with slightly darker green stigmas and style. The anthers appear a darker red-brown colour, covered in lightly coloured yellow pollen grains.

In ultraviolet light the flowers appear very similar in terms of tonality. The stigma is slightly darker.

In infrared light the stigmas appear slightly brighter than they do in visible light. The anthers are brighter, while the pollen and petals remain roughly the same brightness.

Bergenia crassifolia flowers in late Winter / early Spring, and is also known as Winter-blooming bergenia.
