But the green is definitely much more yellow than it has been in recent years. Nearer to lime than emerald. This is much more noticeable in the leaves than it is in the grass on the hills
Which set me thinking. If this were paint you would just say: Add more blue
So, what does put the blue into chlorophyll?
Some kind of nutrient which is relatively lacking this year?
Or is it an effect of the light? Somehing in the atmosphere filtering out the blue?
Or just a bit of etiolation due to poor light, too much cloud cover during March & April?
