Bluebind

This small flower grows up to 2 inches (5 cm) tall. Its blue or white stems grow in bunches of 3 and are very thick and straight, and the small, red leaves are stiff, pointed with serrated edges. The leaves alternate on the stem from about halfway up, up to the flower head.

1 to 7 small flowers grow on alternate sides up the length of the stem. The flowers are 5 cm (2.0 inches) wide, with petals that are either lime or pink, with a yellow center. The flower head is largely flat with many tightly layered narrow petals. They are sturdy.

It has a mildly strong scent that smells like chocolate, and it has very little pollen. It is pollinated by insects and is particularly attractive to a specific species.
