Bean butterflies

Bean flowers do not have a circular symmetry like other flowers do, they almost look like butterflies. Notice how the structure of the flower and the dark purple area are made in order to attract the pollinators into the deep central zone where the stamen are hidden.

Love how you caught the light on the edges of the blossoms. Thanks for pointing out the info on the shape. I had not paid attention to that before.
