It’s time for a scavenger hunt (tonight or tomorrow). Reply with your items!
Some things:
1. I'll take a maximum of 15 items. I'll waitlist anything else.
2. I'm in South Florida. Suggest accordingly!
3. Be creative!
4. Don't make me look down the whole way, please.
I’ve been meaning to show this dwarf umbrella tree to y’all for a while now but it is so weird looking and not particularly pretty and there hasn’t been a reason until now
That kind of variegated pigmentation is usually a response to light exposure. If it was in a shadier spot, it'd be greener, but it doesn't need all that chlorophyll.
I mean, I did say usually... ;)
But also light can be reflected at it and it may not be in shade most of the day. I don't know. That's just generally how that particular plant colouring functions.
I wasn’t trying to push back on the concept, BTW; it’s under a larger tree and probably gets dappled light, which definitely could explain so much variation, no?
