Color is one of the main signaling strategies flowers use to beckon their pollinators. Floral colors and serve as filters, selectively attracting specialist pollinator sto certain blooms while eliminating others. For many of those pollinators, the brighter the better, which must be why floral colors, especially those created by the petals, are among the most highly saturated colors found in nature. Technically speaking saturation is the strength of any given color in relationship to its own brightness. The purest, most highly saturated colors are of one or few close wavelengths and contain almost no white light (the combination of all wavelengths), while unsaturated colors appear faded or washed-out because white light has diluted the colors. Saturated colors be equated with their perceived intensity. ~ Page 18
