Hot off the presses and so so thrilled. Thanks to @inaturalist.bsky.social + computer vision we found something beautifully simple: Red and orange flowers bloom later than all the other colors in the eastern United States. Paper here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1kwzh3QW8S...

Visual abstract: “we test hypotheses about floral diversity with community science data and an advanced computer vision model. Red/orange flowers have delayed flowering that matches hummingbird migratory patterns”

New paper in @newphyt.bsky.social
We explore shifts in vernalization and phenology in rear-edge populations of Campanula americana to get insight into the adaptation of temperate plants to future milder winters.
