Style: Short Sleeve
Description
This women's tee is made from 6.1 oz 100% ring-spun US cotton in a boxy, slightly cropped mid-length cut. It features a topstitched ribbed collar, shoulder-to-shoulder twill tape, a seamless body, and a double-needle bottom hem. Dyed with OEKO-TEX certified low-impact dyes in a WRAP-certified facility, using a salt-free clean pigment process that uses about half the water of conventional pigment dyeing. Boxy fit, sizes S–2XL — it runs close to the body, so size up for a looser drape. Slight shade variation between garments is normal.

Meet winged peperomia
Peperomia alata Ruiz & Pav.
The wings of winged peperomia are extensions of the leaf bases running down the stem. Their prominence varies, and Florida specimens can have much less obvious wings than plants elsewhere. Although modest in size, this perennial occupies more than the forest floor: Costa Rican collections document it growing on trunks and vines, including high in a host tree.
