The chloroplast volcano

[greenilex]

Anyone else noticed a strange cyan/viridian tinge to mother earth this past few days?

Might I - dare I - mouth the word that begins with S?

My nom-de-plume is a clue...

Near, but no cigar, meinherr.

Not but what the peculiar tinge is associated with the word you suggest.

[kernelbogey]

Snowdrops in profusion a dozen miles east of you (makes up for the cruelly frost blasted camellias around Highfield): am I on message here?

[greenilex]

Yes, and the moss and grasses in the Parks are of quite a different hue. Can't quite put my palette knife on it...

I've met a few lichenologists and they all say 'liken'.

[greenilex]

But the hues of lichen are many and various over the year.

Likenology is a good thing, I guess.
