Temperature controls phenology in continuously flowering Protea species of subtropical Africa

Premise of the Study Herbarium specimens are increasingly used as records of plant flowering phenology. However, most herbarium‐based studies on plant phenology focus on taxa from temperate regions. Here, we explore flowering phenologic responses to climate in the subtropical plant genus Protea (Proteaceae), an iconic group of plants that flower year‐round and are endemic to subtropical Africa. Methods We present a novel, circular sliding window...
