Swedish: On Gränsö Nature Reserve ( little island ) plants are a plethora of exciting plants. During my last visit I saw a collection of Dianthus deltoides (Latin), and Back Pinks which is the Swedish name. They lit up as if they were radioactive , and something like that is hard to just walk past with a camera on the shoulder. This plant is a bit special , for the flower closes during the dark period of the day and during rain, and opens at the light and sunshine.

The flat is a bit special, for the flower is closing during the dark period of the day, and During rain, and open up When it Sees Light.
