Glad you liked the pictures, what was your favorite one? And what did you think of my math in thought experiment regarding the innate value contained within a handful of seeds? :)

I do not know anything about "Mother of Millions", but after a quick image search I find myself fascinated by the fractal geometry present in the growth patterns of the leaves in that plant. It reminds me of romanesco broccoli.

Studying fractal geometric patterns in nature is a passion of mine, as I feel that when we use our pattern recognition skills to identify, observe and understand the repeating patterns which exist at the foundation of nature we are gifted opportunities to use the schematics and architectural design of Creator to be able to use biomimicry to solve some of the greatest challenges we face as a human civilization and as a species.

Are you familiar with the geometrical pattern referred to as a Torus (and how it repeats in many living and elemental forms throughout the natural world)?

it’s a succulent (kalanchoe family) so not too much water & lots of sunlight & (as the name suggests) it could become invasive, so maybe best as a potted plant 🪴
