A very interesting #study on #mechanisms that can prevent #selfinhibition in #clonal #plantgrowth via interconnected modules (#ramets). To circumvent competition between neighboring branches for limited space, plants can utilize #minorobstacles such as stones or debris leading to the necessary spatial #separation. The authors compare this mechanism with obstacles used by humans to enhance #pedestrianflow.

There's something magical about watching a new Monstera leaf unfurl 🌿
My Monstera deliciosa has just finished rolling out a fresh new leaf, and it's beautiful to see how perfectly formed it is with its characteristic fenestrations already visible. The bright, vibrant green of new growth always brings such joy to the indoor jungle.
These iconic splits and holes aren't just decorative – in their natural habitat, they help the large leaves withstand strong winds and allow light to reach lower leaves.
Er is iets magisch aan het zien ontstaan van een nieuw Monstera blad 🌿
Mijn Monstera deliciosa heeft net een vers nieuw blad uitgerold, en het is prachtig om te zien hoe perfect gevormd het is met de karakteristieke gaten al zichtbaar. Het heldere, levendige groen van nieuwe groei brengt altijd zo veel vreugde in de indoor jungle.
Deze iconische spleten en gaten zijn niet alleen decoratief – in hun natuurlijke habitat helpen ze de grote bladeren om sterke wind te weerstaan en laten ze licht door naar de lagere bladeren.
