Ericaceae (Heath family) appreciation post!! these flowers have what is known as an urceolate corolla, which means that the petals are united into an “urn” shape, giving this family its cool appearance!!

Lamiaceae (mint family) flower appreciation post!! Not only are mints easy to identify because of their square stems, opposite leaves, and characteristic zygomorphic flowers, they’re also very pretty and come in really cool colours!!
