"A plant is not merely a unit in a design, but a complicated work of art more complete and beautiful than anything we shall ever make ourselves. It belongs to a different, a vegetable world which we cannot realize, it is governed by laws which we can only remotely understand, and it is adapted to this mysterious life in patterns of astonishing beauty."-- Nan Fairbrother, Men and Gardens
