A Young Frond Unfurls Beside Mature Ones

On the dark leaf-littered soil of a forest floor a settled seed has split and sent out a first pale rootlet curving down into the soil with a tiny pale-green shoot just pushing up among fallen leaves in gentle morning light.

The First Rootlet Emerges From a Settled Seed

A single small seed lies wedged deep in a crevice in the rough grey-brown bark of a tree trunk beside a speck of damp soil and a thread of green moss with rain droplets on the bark ridges in damp grey light.
