Your mention of wildflowers in burn zones reminded me -- it seems to me 
that the wildflowers in burn zones on the PCT tend to be mostly purple. 
Overwhelmingly so, even.

I'm no botanist, and this was just my general impression, hardly a 
scientific study.  So I may just be totally wrong about that.  But could 
there be a botanical reason for purple, specifically, to be advantageous 
in burn zones?

Just curious if anybody knows.
