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
