Golden Mock Orange (Philadelphus coronarius 'Aureus') [Vis UV IR]

Comparison of Philadelphus coronarius 'Aureus' (Golden Mock Orange) in visible light (top), ultraviolet light (middle), and infrared light (bottom).

In visible light the plant has white flowers and yellow leaves.

In ultraviolet light the area around the base of each petal appear quite dark.

In infrared there is not much of a difference (in terms of tonality) in how the flowers and leaves appear compared to their appearance in visible light.
