twin-spica: Pollia condensata A tropical metre-tall herb that sprouts its shiny berry-like fruits in clusters up to 40-strong. These little orbs are iridescent – they use special layers of cells, arranged just so, to reflect colours with extraordinary intensity. This trick relies on the microscopic physical structures of the cells, rather than on any chemical pigments. Indeed, the fruits have no blue pigment at all. More after the jump to learn about the chemical properties which give it its colour. It has been dubbed “the shiniest living thing on earth”.
