"From the seed grows a root, then a sprout; from the sprout, the seedling leaves; from the leaves, the stem; around the stem, the branches; at the top, the flower. . .

We can say that the potentialities for growth lie within the seed, in mysterious life forces, which, when properly fostered, take on certain forms."
