Hello! Deltarune chapter 5 just got a trailer and a new front page for the website, and I want to make a quick post about it because I have plant knowledge and what's shown here may not be apparent to everyone, judging by my seeing someone referring to the blue flowers on the website border as roses.
What's shown on the website is a set of blue flowers, with foliage. There are ones with an inflorescence of three or four small flowers, ones that either aren't open yet or have a bottle-like form, ones with five petals (also interesting), and the ones which are described as roses and which are the most abundant on the web page but my screenshot only captures one set because you have to scroll on my monitor to see them all.
I've supplied two royalty-free example photos from Pexels. The one on the left is a rose bush. The form of domestic rose flowers varies quite a lot, but they are classically quite globular in three dimensions, with either more round or more pointy petals going on. However, the leaves are always the same, and they are a compound-leaf made up of a set of pinnately arranged oblong/egg-shaped leaflets. Is that what's pictured beside these supposed roses on the website? I don't think so!
The picture on the right, the leaves are out of focus because I couldn't find one that clearly showed the leaves, but I hope you can see the overall shape clearly enough. This is a domestic buttercup, usually referred to as 'ranunculus' which is the name of the the genus. The flowers' form can also vary, but the most classic shape is sort of like the top of a wine glass, or an egg cut in half. The leaves are divided and frilly. Does this look a lot more like the flowers on the web page? I think so. At least the top set. Maybe the bottom ones actually are roses?
Anyways, domestic buttercups... domestic buttercups...
Or maybe Toby wasn't thinking about the details too much when he had this piece of art created.
