Twinflower, Linnaea borealis, is known as a subshrub (aka dwarf shrub). This beautiful summer-blooming plant with delicate pink trumpet-shaped blooms lives close to the ground of dark forests. When it is not actively blooming, it is easy to overlook this perennial plant.

[Images Description: Stalked clusters of the same kind of delicate pink trumpet-shaped twinflowers rise above the forest floor, where olive colored moss intermingles with bright green oval leaves of the twinflower plant.]

Tattoo drawing for a friend. The Twinflower (Linnaea borealis) was Carl Linnaeus’s favorite plant, so he named it after himself.

Linnaea Borealis (or the Twin Flower) in Finnish by birth, but has spent a lot of time in India from a young age, living in several different areas with her father, so she’s really at home with the multitude of cultures and languages there. 

My little twin flower is for @avtvmnsalad. She looks a bit lilac-y in the pictures to me, but should be pinker in game. You’re welcome to tweak her colours a bit if she’s more lilac to your eyes because apparently I SUCK at making pastel sims, who knew. 

Linn is slider free, and uses only this hair. She should be on my default berry skin so use whichever you have :)

Traits: Ambitious, Kleptomaniac, Loser, Loves the Outdoors, Over-emotional

分類学の父カール･フォン･リンネが愛したリンネソウ。去年の展示会『リンネの採集旅行』を開催した時からいつか探しに行こうと思っていた花でしたが、まさかこのラップランドの地で出会えるとは…見つけた時は思わず叫んでしまいました。小さなベルがふたつ、とても小さくて可憐な愛らしい花です。

日本では北海道や八ヶ岳などの高山の針葉樹林で見られるそう。

ホテル近くやニューラ山でのフラワーツアーでもよく見かけたし、翌日のクングスレーデン（王様の散歩道）では群生している姿が。

写真では少し白っぽく写っていますが、実物は淡いピンク色です。
