In the sea’s hidden gardens grow plants without roots, flowers or fruit. Some looks artifically bright, like Troll doll hair – others like green necklaces, translucent elephant ears or plush green cushions. They are, in all their mad, unsung variety, the “macroalgae” – seaweeds.
They can be an epiphyte found near the Three Kings Islands, that grows all of 2.5mm.
