Nuvali Bloom

Jugabet Limited

About this app

It's late spring, the verge outside your window is bright with things you half-recognise, and the field guide on the shelf weighs a kilogram. Nuvali Bloom is the pocket version.

Fifteen common wildflowers — poppy, cornflower, cowslip, foxglove, bluebell, yarrow, red clover, cow parsley, ragged robin, ox-eye daisy, meadowsweet, common vetch, selfheal, herb-robert, common knapweed. Each with its Latin name, habitat, blooming window, and a paragraph of story — the drug that came out of foxglove, the woodland age a bluebell carpet tells you, the aspirin hidden inside meadowsweet.

A botany timeline in nine moments, from Theophrastus writing the first surviving book about plants around 300 BC, through Linnaeus fixing the two-word name that every species still carries, to a leaf fragment being identified by its DNA barcode in a phone app.

Eight questions in a shuffled trivia round. Each answer reveals its story — you're meant to end up knowing a little more than when you started.

No account. No connection needed. Everything lives on this device.
