The perfect balance

Your Singular Plants enjoy shade. Or, to put it more properly, they seem to enjoy having a roof over their head more than the actual properties of shade that roofs convey.

The trouble for you is not in finding a shadowed spot, but in finding a light source near enough such that the contrast between light and dark is just so. There – a townhouse with windows that spill light onto a neighbouring roof. You pot up your Singular Cuttings and resettle them perfectly. Your poison-tipped umbrella helps to throw shade at precisely the right angle. The mesmeric parasol is the perfect final touch.
