<n>The Garden of Cosmic Speculation</n> in Scotland by <n>Charles Jencks</n> and <n>Maggie Keswick</n>.

Fight against the dozens of deceptive threats in the jungle to see your seed sprout from a sapling to maturity. Instill clever paradigms in your DNA that outwit the predators who want you for breakfast. You must conjure clever chemistry to make your sweetest pieces taste like venom on the tongue of the snake.

Your roots must be firmly planted underground, stretching at least as far as your visible branches, and they must act as a network to transmit any vital information or substance exactly where it needs to go. Your most essential parts should thrive when they are out of sight.

The way of the plants 🌱. The original conquerors of the non-aquatic domain. Throughout their long and impressive history, these creatures survived many more atrocities than we have. We still have much more to learn from them.
