Iteration I: Visualizing Bloom TimeThis visualization maps blooming orchids across a northern hemisphere layout. Visitors can toggle between life forms, explore details on hover, and save orchids to a personal list. This is designed as a tool for visitors to explore the different kinds of orchids they would be able to see at different times.
This tested whether a temporal/geographic frame was the most intuitive entry point. It worked well for "when can I see this," but flattened everything else — pollinator, fragrance, and color data had no home in this structure.
