Lavender pollen grain, SEM

Lavender pollen grain. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a pollen grain (yellow) amongst the petal (papilla) cells (purple) of a French lavender (Lavandula dentata) flower. The pollen shows the round, sculpted protein coat characteristic of lavender. Pollen is produced by the male sex organs in lavender flowers and dispersed by insects to the female sex organs of other lavender flowers, where the eggs (ova) are fertilised. Magnification: x2476 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate beauty of a lavender pollen grain. Seen through a colored scanning electron microscope (SEM), the round shape and sculpted protein coat characteristic of lavender are clearly visible. The vibrant yellow pollen stands out against the backdrop of purple petal cells, creating a visually captivating image. Pollen plays a crucial role in the reproductive cycle of lavender flowers. Produced by the male sex organs, it is then dispersed by insects to reach the female sex organs of other lavender flowers, where fertilization takes place. This process ensures that eggs are successfully fertilized and new plants can grow. The magnification level used for this print allows us to appreciate even the tiniest details on this microscopic scale. At x2476 magnification when printed 10 centimeters wide, we can truly marvel at nature's intricate design. This photograph not only showcases the biological aspects of plant reproduction but also highlights the delicate beauty found within our natural world. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly small and insignificant elements like pollen grains, there is an extraordinary complexity waiting to be discovered. Whether you have an interest in botany or simply appreciate breathtaking images from nature, this Lavender Pollen Grain SEM print will undoubtedly captivate your imagination and add a touch of elegance to any space it graces.
