Anthocyanin being water soluble determines the colour of the flower according to pH change. It is quite interesting to know that these plants to some extent downgrade themselves to use lower energy light which kinda limits their growth as most of the higher energy blue lights are reflected. The physics behind this blue colour is really astonishing.

Thanx for posting such a nice educational post! Would love to read more from you :)
