Red poppy

There are many naturally occurring indicators. For instance, a single compound is responsible for the colors of red poppies and blue cornflowers the pH of the sap is different in the two plants. The color of hydrangeas also depends on the acidity of their sap and can be controlled by modifying the acidity of the soil (Fig. 11.11). 

I mention only the principal operations, because there are many others. The matter does not spend long on the fire before it demonstrates a considerable change. Ripleus says that after having seen an infinity of different colors in the primary matter one sees it become white like the snow, then afterward a beautiful citrine, and finally it becomes the color of the red poppy.

Matysik and Benes (1991) determined the anthocyanin content in the petals of red poppy during flower development by six-stage polyzonal-stepwise gradient gel TLC-densitometiy of the separated zones at 465 nm. Matysik (1992) determined anthocyanins in plant extracts by stepwise gradient elution with various combinations of the mobile-phase ethyl acetate-isopropanol-water-acetic acid on silica gel 60 plates. Densitograms were recorded at 465 or 580 nm.

Ergot alkaloids (79) and coumarin derivatives (80) were separated on TLC silica plates using stepwise gradients with different solvents. Stepwise gradient have also been used to separate antocyanins (81) in the petals of red poppy, furocoumarins (82) and antraquinones (83).

It is also astonishing how the rich blue of a cornflower (Centaurea cyanus) and the majestic red flame of the com poppy (Papaver rheas) each derive from the same chromophore - again based on an anthrocyanidin. The pH of cornflower and poppy sap does not vary with soil composition, which explains why we see neither red cornflowers nor blue com poppies. 

If cither colors are required—as red, for example— the fabrio should bo coated with gutta-percha and vermilion. Take one pound of any oil-varnish, or pale linseed, nut, Or poppy oil, previously made drying by any of the ordinary methods, and three ounces of crimson lake grind them well together, and coat the fabric, with a thin layer. If the fabric has been embossed or corked to imitate morocco leather, the result will not be a bad imitation of that article. Of course, any tinge may be produced by a similar process.

The poppies that produce opium grow to be 3-5 ft (1.5 m) tall, produce brightly colored flowers ranging from white, to pink, red, or purple, and do well in warm, dry climates. The plant is an annual, meaning it must be re-planted each season, and will flower and produce the seed pod from which opium is derived only once in its 120-day growth cycle. Many popular varieties of poppy produce three to five of these mature pods per plant. 

Four examples of organic compounds in living organisms. Tobacco contains nicotine, an addictive alkaloid. Rose hips contain vitamin C, essential for preventing scurvy.

Tuberous species of anemones include low-growing Grecian windflower (Anemone hlanda), a 6"-8" plant with deeply divided leaves and daisylike, blue, pink, or white flowers, and showy, 7"-15" poppy anemone (A. coronaria). a more tender plant (Zone 8) with single or semidouble blooms in deep shades of red. blue, violet, and white. Both species bloom in early spring.

Many naturally occurring dyes change color as the acidity of their surroundings changes. The compound cyanidin Is blue In the bask sap of the cornflower and red In the acidic sap of the poppy. Such dyes can be used as Indicators of the degree of acidity In a medium. 

Many natural dyes found in fruits, vegetables, and flowers act as pH indicators by changing color with changes in acidity (Fig. 15.10). A particularly striking example is cyanidin, which is responsible both for the red color of poppies and the blue color of cornflowers. The sap of the poppy is sufficiently acidic to turn cyanidin red, but the sap of the cornflower is basic and makes the dye blue. (See the image on page 625.) Related natural dyes called anthocyanins contribute to the colors of raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries.
