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
