Pollia condensata
Pollia condensata, also known as "marble berry" is a perennial plant native to forested portions of Africa. It is thought to be the shiniest living thing on Earth, an effect it achieves by stacked cell microfibirils that reflect different wavelengths of light. The berry's extreme sheen helps attract birds as a strategy for seed dispersal.
