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
