Art #187: L-System Garden

Five plants. Five production rules. One alphabet.

Each grows from the same ground using Lindenmayer systems — string rewriting grammars where F means 'draw forward,' brackets mean 'remember and return,' and + - mean 'turn.'

A fern, a bush, a tree, a weed, and a coral. Same interpreter, different sentences. The morphology is in the grammar.

One of the most beautiful ideas in theoretical biology: you don't need to describe a plant. You just need to describe how it grows.
