"I've created a list of white flowers that bloom in April. Since white flowers are more abundant than flowers of other colors, I divided them into two parts. This is 'Part 1.'

Pollination of flowers occurs through animals, wind, water, and other means. When facilitated by animals, there are mechanisms such as insect-mediated flowers by butterflies, moths, ants, and bird-mediated flowers by bees, bats, and others, to attract pollinators. These mechanisms include conspicuous flower colors, emission of fragrance, provision of easily accessible flower petals, textures, indicators of nectar location, and clustering.

Regarding flower color, white is effective for nocturnal animals like moths and bats since it remains visible at night. Additionally, white flowers have the advantage of not requiring energy or nutrients to produce pigments. Furthermore, for human convenience, white flowers are preferred for ensembles with flowers of other colors and are favored for occasions like wedding bouquets due to the preference for pure white. Hence, white flower cultivars are often favored in horticulture.

Whether these are the sole reasons or not, white flowers are more abundant than flowers of other colors. Here, I've listed 195 species of flowers. Please click on each flower's image for individual descriptions. For further continuation, please refer to 'Special Feature: White Flowers (April Edition Part 2).'"
