Lysimachia monelli is a species of flowering plant in the family Myrsinaceae, native to the Mediterranean region. Though commonly blue (hence the common name blue pimpernel), orange examples as pictured here also exist. The orange-coloured flowers have a higher concentration of the pigment pelargonidin, while blue flowers have a higher concentration of malvidin.Photograph: Hans Hillewaert
