It will always have the same basic structure, but you can tell a lot about how well it was raised by looking at it. These brothers did great things together, but in the end it was an act of murder that separated them, from one to the other. These plants, likewise, cannot die from neglect. It takes purposeful action to kill them."

He brought up three plants. They looked very similar, though one had broad leaves, as though it'd grown in the rainforest. One looked like it could have come from any forest around England. The last had very narrow leaves, and a waxy coating. "What do you think was the difference in raising these three plants?"

"Perhaps the difference in temperatures and amount of rainfall they received where they were grown. Warm temperatures and sufficient rain may produce larger leaves, while a cold harsh climate may produce a less full plant. Varying effects of Mother Nature's love..." Kennedy offered.
