Mesembryanthemum, 20th century. Artist: CM Dixon
Mesembryanthemum, 20th century. A genus of flowering plants indigenous to southern Africa, it is characterised by long-lasting flower heads which protect their gametes from night-time dews and frosts but open in sunlight. There is an obvious evolutionary advantage in reducing exposure and closing may be advantageous during times when flowers are unlikely to attract pollinators

EDITORS COMMENTS
Mesembryanthemum, a vibrant symbol of resilience and adaptation in the 20th century. This print by CM Dixon showcases the mesmerizing beauty of these indigenous flowering plants found in southern Africa. Known for their long-lasting flower heads, Mesembryanthemums possess a remarkable survival strategy – protecting their precious gametes from night-time dews and frosts while opening up to bask in sunlight. The evolutionary advantage becomes evident as we witness nature's ingenuity unfold before our eyes. By reducing exposure during unfavorable conditions and closing when pollinators are scarce, these flowers ensure their continued existence. The delicate pink hues captured in this close-up shot evoke a sense of optimism, reminding us that even amidst challenging times, there is always room for growth and transformation. As we contemplate this image, we are transported to the vast outdoors of South Africa where these resilient blooms thrive. Each petal tells a story of determination and adaptability within the country's diverse flora. CM Dixon's artistry skillfully portrays the intricate details of this mesmeric flowerhead with its open petals inviting us to appreciate nature's wonders. Let this photograph serve as an invitation to embrace change with grace and find solace in the resilience displayed by Mesembryanthemums throughout history.
