Honeysuckle

When it comes to honeysuckle, you may think that it is also a flower of gold and silver. In fact, the plants of honeysuckle often have white and yellow flowers. However, honeysuckle flowers are not like this at the beginning. When honeysuckle blooms, it will first bloom white flowers,

In fact, the color change of two-color jasmine is related to many factors such as light, temperature and so on. At the beginning of the flower, because of the pigment, it's purple. When the pigment disappears, it turns white. But because the flowering time of the same plant is different, the phenomenon of two color flowers blooming at the same time will appear.
