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
