All Green? The Secret Color Palette of Our Plants

Description

Normally we see green – it dominates our image of plants. But what other colors can we discover when darkness makes the green disappear? What shades do we find when a beam of light guides our perception? And what appears when we use different light? We embark on a nocturnal tour through our greenhouses.

Highlights

• Nocturnal tour through the greenhouses
• Discovery of the secret color palette of plants
• Fascination through various light sources

General Information

The event takes place in the Botanical Garden of the University of Zurich and invites participants to explore the colors of plants at night. By using different light sources, new shades become visible that are normally hidden in the dark.
