Animating blossom: Time‐lapse to encourage plant awareness in the YouTube era

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Time‐lapse videos can effectively capture key traits of flower blossoms, such as color, 3D structure, and temporal changes, making them valuable complements to herbarium specimens and other botanical collections. Despite the abundance of such videos on YouTube, most provide no ecological and botanical insights.

Floral Temperatures of the Southern‐Most Flowering Amorphophallus titanum and Seedling Growth Following Self‐Pollination

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Amorphophallus titanum (Becc.) Becc. (Araceae) is native to the rainforests of Sumatra, and famously produces a single, massive, thermogenic, and highly odoriferous inflorescence. Despite having both male and female flowers in close proximity, A. titanum does not readily self‐pollinate as it is strictly dichogamous, with female flowers receptive on the
