OK  A   FERN   IS  AN  OBVIOUS   FRACTAL 
                                      
                                          
                              
                                    
                                  
                                        
                                    
                                       
                                         
                                          
 FERNS ARE  THE RESTS OF AN ANCIENT PLANT 
 EMPIRE SPANNING THE ENTIRE EARTH, TAKING 
 ON  THE  ROLES  NOW   GIVEN   TO  GRASS, 
        BUSHES, TREES AND FLOWERS.        
                                          
 TWELVE  THOUSAND  SPEICES  ARE LEFT  AND 
 THEY  LIVE  IN  TROPICAL  MOUNTAINS HIGH 
 ABOVE THE REST  OF THE WORLD. SOME FLOAT 
                 ON WATER.                
                                          
 THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FERN AND A MOSS 
 IS  THAT  THE  FERN  CAN TRANSFER  WATER 
 WITHIN  ITSELF.  THE  MOSS  HAS  TO  USE 
          EXTERNAL WATER TRANSFER         
                                          
                                          
           PTERIDIUM AQUILINUM          
                     
                                          
 CALLED  EAGLE FERN  OR BRACKEN  OR EAGLE 
 BRACKEN.  IT  LIVES  IN  COLONIES  WHERE 
 EVERY  INDIVIDUAL MIGHT LOOK  VERY  MUCH 
 ALIKE,  BUT   THEY   EACH   HAVE  UNIQUE 
 PROPORTIONS  (WHICH  CAN   BE   HARD  TO 
 SPOT). THIS MAKES THEM PERFECT  ANTENNAE 
                                          
 A  BIT  SCARY,  ESPECIALLY  AFTER YOU'VE 
            HAD A FEW DRINKS.             
                                          
 IF  YOU EAT THEM YOU GET SICK.  IN FACT, 
 OTHER  PLANTS IN  THE VICINITY GET  SICK 
 AS WELL.  SO THERE IS  ALWAYS  RECEPTION 
                                          
                                          
          BOTRYPUS VIRGINIANUS          
                    
                                          
 SMALL, NO  HIGHER  THEN THIRD  A  METER. 
       CONTAINS MISTLETOE DNA IN ITS      
  MITROCHONDRIA. IT'S NOT MOONWORT. BUT   
               IT COULD BE.               
                                          
                                          
          THAT OTHER NICE ONE           
                     
                                          
 HOLD  ON  I'M TRYING TO  FIND  THE  NAME
