Description
Yellowed leaves die, producing rotting material that goes into soil for the plants - for tropical plants, this is a fundamental way to ensure continued soil-sustenance in a highly competitive environment.

They also provide bright shading that attracts insects, which in turn attract birds - an added bonus to flowing or fruiting plants that rely on either or both for pollen/seed distribution.

And they look pretty.
