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
