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
