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
