Where to find Purple in Nature!
Posted by Social PURPLEologist on 12th Aug 2015
Nature is not just green, nature is purple, too!
If you love 'all things purple', you probably love purple nature as well!
We at PURPLEologist love everything purple and our very own PURPLEologist, PurpleBarb, loves
photographing purple in nature as she travels the world!
PURPLE Nature is all around!
No matter the season, purple is to be found everywhere in nature. Think about purple vegetables in summer, purple animals, purple flowers in spring, purple skies and more!
Let see some pretty purple pictures....
Purple Vegetables
To find out what veggies are purple, check out this list!
“If I could eat only one color per day, it would be purple” said James Joseph, who is a neuroscientist at Tufts University’s USDA Human Nutrition Research Center On Aging.
He’s not the only health professional raving about these foods.
The National Health and Nutrition Examination Study, a survey of eating and health habits found that adults who eat purple vegetables and blue fruits have reduced risk for high blood pressure, lower cholesterol and less likely to be overweight.
So dig into those eggplants, beets, potatoes, turnips, kale, rhubarb and know not only are they a feast for your eye, they are feast for your body as well!
Purple Animals
Can you name even just ONE PURPLE ANIMAL from the top of your head?
If I say purple bird, purple frog, purple bug or purple fish, I am confident you'll remember having seen purple animals before!
Here's a cool video of purple animals!
Purple Flowers & Purple Plants
There's an abundance of purple in nature in flowers, flowers pants and trees! Just go to Google images and you'll find so many to choose from.
These purple azaleas we photographed at one of our local hotspots, Brookgreen Gardens this past spring! Aren't they gorgeous?!
Purple Skies
We love purple skies, especially purple sunsets. We have created our very own 'Purple Sunset' board on Pinterest! If you love purple as much as we do, join us on Pinterest and follow this (or any other) purple board we have!
