Description

The well-known Flor de Mayo is a plant renowned in the Mesoamerican region for its uniquely shaped flowers. The flower primarily exhibits white and yellow hues, but the FLAAR Mesoamerica team managed to document a yellow variety in various locations across Guatemala. This color is not only rare to see, but also appears in specific environments discussed in this article, which includes an extensive collection of photographs documenting the plant, its flowers, and some of the environments in which it was found. This will allow readers to learn about the lesser-known yellow variety of the Flor de Mayo.
