Default What Is It ?
I just noticed something growing at the base of my sea aneome today. It looks very beautiful, but I don't know what it is. Beautiful does not necessarily mean good.
It looks like a small cluster of pearls only they are an emerald green colour. ( almost like a bubble coral, although I didn't buy one )

Any ideas ?


Thanks,
Salty.

It may just be that, a bubble. I have something similar that is a bunch of greenish "ballons" with a "tail" on each. In my case I know that its a bubble.
