Question

Explain why plants with normal leaves grow more than plants with variegated leaves.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:The green-leafed foliage plants require the least light. Normal room light levels will usually be sufficient. Foliage plants with variegated leaves require brighter light, because their two-toned leaves have less chlorophyll, which is needed for growth

Answer 2

Less chlorophyll means less solar energy, as it is a primary component in photosynthesis. Variegated plants are less vigorous than green specimens are.
