Surface temperature was estimated from thermal imaging pictures taken along transect lines for each flower or flower unit under natural sunlight (red) and artificial shade (gray), plotted in relation to the absolute distance from the center to the edge of a flower or a flower unit.
Relative locations of the minimums (left) and the maximums (right) of observed surface temperature along each transect line within a flower or a flower unit under natural sunlight (white background) and artificial shade (gray background).
