This image shows the fuzz on the underside of a lavender petal. The little hairs can clearly be made out. This sample of lavender was collected at around 3am on Friday, May 31st from a cluster of plants just North of Caltech’s Chandler Cafe. A piece of the plant was picked off, and a few petals were placed on a glass slide, covered with a cover slip, and the whole thing was then viewed through a Foldscope with a phone flashlight as an external light source. #caltechbi1
