  A very interesting question! My answer would be a chilli plant – the plant itself is kind of green and boring which reflects a lot of the lab work we do which is repetitive and tedious, but then you get the chilli peppers that are spicy and brightly coloured, reflecting all the cool parts of my job like working at NASA, meeting astronauts, and watching rocket launches. Bonus: our research team has grown chilli plants in space before!
