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
