Flowers Which Don't Change Colour Aayiram Malargalae
Nerve Renew Dear Friend, You don’t realize it yet, but in the next couple of minutes, you’re going to learn about an all natural formula with ingredients backed by peer reviewed clinical studies. I am going to show you how these ingredients have been shown to improve neuropathic symptoms and let you return to a []. GA: At that time we used to play the songs “Pournami Nilavil” & ‘Aayiram Nilave vaa”. We used to change the chords in the orchestration, ILayaraja used to change it and we used to play differently than the original. (both GA & SPB play a sample bit using their mouths). I have the same feeling when I listen to Nanaithaale Inikkum etc. (BTW, the Darling Darling song, well. Never mind.;-) ) Overall, for me I have to listen to ARR a few times before it gets into me and I don't get tired of it for a longtime. Anybody listened to Naattuppura Paattu and Pooncholai lately. Why Do People Laugh at Creationists? In this amateur documentary creationists are tackled at every level from the scientific illiterates who want to play in the scientific arena but don't even understand the words they use, to convicted fraudsters like Kent Hovind who abuse the scientific illiteracy of people to dupe them out of money. How to Make Colored Flowers Easy and Fun Colored Flower Science Project. Preferably white - Don't use wilted flowers since they might not be able to absorb water well. Good choices include daisies and carnations. Also, many flower pigments are pH indicators, so you can simply change the color of some flowers by putting them into water.
I know that anthocyanins are a class of compounds responsible for the purple colors found in flower petals.
Anthocyanins (also anthocyans; from Greek: ἀνθός (anthos) = flower + κυανός (kyanos) = blue) are water-soluble vacuolar pigments that may appear red, purple, or blue depending on the pH. (same reference as above)
The anthocyanins, when extracted from flower petals with water, can be used as acid/base indicators, producing red colors in acid and blue in neutral solutions (in basic solutions they turn green, yellow, and then become colorless). When I've done the extractions, some red petals produce a red color in acid and maintain the red color at higher pH than purple flowers (see plate below), but some red flowers produce colors that seem to follow the normal progression.
Row 2 from the top was a purple flower, row 3 a red flower and row 4 also a red flower. (pH values start at 2 on the left and increase by 1 pH unit as you move right by adding the water extracts to buffer samples in the wells.)
So, are there other classes of compounds responsible for the red and yellow colors found in flowers? Can the red colors that give a 'normal' anthocyanin pH response arise from pigments held in an acidic environment in the plant? (That may be a biology question, but I'm interested in the chemistry side of where the color comes from.)

Interest in colors, specifically dyes, was a real motivator for serious chemical work. Some of the early efforts were aiming to mimic Tyrian purple, also known as Royal Purple, because in antiquity it was worth its weight in gold.
Two classes of molecules come to mind other than anthocyanins in phytochemistry, such as the closely related flavones (its root means yellow) and the distinct carotenes (its root means carrot, but also responsible for flamingo color).

A real sharp organic chemist by the name of Richard Willstatter proposed this in the early 1900s. He was working on determining the structure of the pigment responsible for the blue color in cornflower. He extracted the same substance coming from a rose and proposed that all flower colors were due to a different pH in the sap. As your experiment clearly points out, however, alkaline conditions are typically required for the blue anion. A Japanese group argued that alkaline conditions in the sap were unlikely and that instead these different colors can be explained by the formation of metal-organic complexes.
It wasn't until 2005 that a definitive crystal structure was determined from the cornflower pigment called protocyanin. It turns out that the blue color comes from a supermolecule containing one $ce{Fe^{3+}}$, one $ce{Mg^{2+}}$, two $ce{Ca^{2+}}$, six anthocyanin and six flavone molecules packaged together in a complex structure. This color, as I vaguely recall, remains blue from pH 7 until pH 1! This agreed with some earlier evidence which suggested a complex species by the temperature dependence of the pigment.
These are not easy studies to conduct and I'm not familiar with how in-depth red colors have been studied, but it is certainly possible a complex species is actually how the red pigments form in vivo. Keeping in mind that plant vacuoles have a pH on the order of 5, we'll generally notice a loss in red above pH 3 in solution for a pure anthrocyanin in solution as hydration of the cation occurs. Stability of the color, and thus cation, obviously must be obtained either via copigmentation or with metals in a plant.
Janice, apart from the benzopyrylium (anthocyane) dyes you mentioned, there's quite some red to be found among the natural hydroxy-substituted naphthoquinones and anthraquinones, e.g.
- Purpurin [81-54-9] (1,2,4-Trihydroxyanthraquinone) from Rubia tinctorum
Carminic acid [1260-17-9] from Dactylopius occus, an insect living on opuntia
Alkannin [517-88-4] from Alkanna tinctoria
I hope that helps a bit.
Ahh, I forgot to mention
- Lycopene [502-65-8] from Tomato.
While others have already mentioned the carotenoids in general, lycopene is your favourite if you want it really red :)
If you're interested in lycopene in particular, don't bother to buy it from chemical suppliers. The lycopene concentration in tomato paste is that high (and the paste dirt cheap) that the extraction is the way to go. Colleagues of mine working in photosynthesis research did that all the time.
PS. I'm sorry, you asked for red dyes in flower petals, not natural red dyes in general. Otherwise I would have mentioned a member of another class of compounds we didn't cover so far:
- Betanine [7659-95-2] from the red beet
Now, I won't ;)

Cut flowers are still able to absorb water when placed in a vaseas long as the xylem and phloem vessels are open and not clogged/blocked by dead plant tissue and debris.
Any dye that is placed in the water will be absorbed up throughthe stem and move through the plant tissue (translocation) where itwill collect or be deposited.
This dye coloring is then visible in the flower when we look atit; sometimes the entire flower can become colored, sometimes onlyportions colored - especially if some of the xylem vessels aredamaged or blocked and no water is transported through them.
White flowers are normally used to colour artificially as thedye coloring does not always show clearly against darker coloredcoloured flowers (i.e. those that have a naturally darkercoloring)

u would need a lot of food coloring or any coloring of some sort to do it. it works better with a white flower, but it also works with a colored flower. it may take longer and more resources, but its possible.
How do flowers change colors with food coloring?
Answer The color changes through plant transport. The plant absorbs the colored water through the tissues in its stem, which pulls the water through the plant by forming a hydrogen bond with the water molecules. This hydrogen bond creates a string of water molecules that travel up the stem and out to the leaves and flowers of the plant. In this case, the colored water is dispersed in the outermost tips of the petals and…

If you plant white daisy flower seeds giving it colored water with food coloring why would the flowers change color?
The reason if you do that is because, flowers have itty bitty tubes in their stems that suck all the nutrients out of the ground helping it grow, if the water is is colored then the flower will suck up the colored water feed it the water then the flower will be that color. If I were I would test it on celery first to see if it works. The reason why I'm telling you…

How does food coloring affect plant growth?
The food colouring itself does not have any affect on the growth of the plant, it does however colour or 'stain' the tissues of the plant - sometimes making them easier to see under a microscope. If certain flowers (normally cut flowers) are watered with water containing food colouring, the colour of the flowers can be artificially manipulated (this is sometimes done with chrysanthemums, roses and carnations). The colour change is not permanent as it…

What is the method of changing flower petals a different color?
If you want to permanently change the color of the flowers while they are still attached to the plant, it is not possible. If the flowers are just on a stem then it is easily done, but can take a while, depending on the type of flower. Mix some food coloring or any dye that will not kill the plant with some water. Place the stem in the colored water. White flowers will work best…
