About the Natural Species Being Replicated
Ulva is a genus of green algae commonly known as Sea Lettuce and is widely distributed along coastlines throughout the world's oceans.
In nature, Sea Lettuce is characterized by its bright-green, sheet-like appearance. Its broad blades typically feature lobed or ruffled edges that resemble the leaves of lettuce and may appear flat, thin, rounded, oval, or irregular in shape.
Natural Sea Lettuce blades may also develop holes or perforations of various sizes. The algae attach to surfaces with a small holdfast rather than true roots.
