The most common colours include orange, yellow and red, although some species can be different shades, such as pink or white. These colours are not only beautiful to look at, but also help plants survive by aiding pollination.

Colour intensity and shades vary depending on the variety and environmental conditions. Trumpet flowers are often found in bicolour or tricolour form, which adds to their decorative value. The different colour combinations allow them to be used in a wide range of gardens and parks, contributing to biodiversity and aesthetic pleasure.

What is the colour of a trumpet flower?

The colour of the trumpet flower can vary depending on several factors. The colour depends mainly on the genetic make-up of the variety, but is also influenced by environmental factors such as soil pH, temperature and sunlight. Individual varieties have characteristic colours which are inherited, but environmental influences can also play a significant role in the intensity and shade of flower colour.

How is the trumpet flower colour colour mixing possible?

Trumpet flower colour mixing is a genetically controlled process where the plant produces different colours through different species and hybridisation. In crossbreeding, genes that influence the flower colours of plants combine, leading to new colour variations. The resulting colours can be provided either by pollination with other flower species or between different colour variants of the same species.
