My understanding is that higher plants need more protection from too much sunlight, therefore they will be lighter in color. However, in my area, I noticed that plant species always vary in color (light to dark) despite their extremely similar altitudes. Tall plants can be dark in color, which means my initial understanding is flawed. Is this the case with plants you have observed in your area? What do you guys think of my initial understanding of color vs altitude?
