Hydra Plants!

(on behalf of Sidharta)

You may be wondering why we call a hydra a hydra. We call hydras hydras because they can grow new heads, even if you cut one head off!

Well I'm going to tell you something weird...one time when I was going on a walk, I looked at a fallen branch. It was spring, 2010, but I've seen this branch a couple of times, whenever I went on walks. But this particular walk, I saw flowers growing on it, even though this particular branch had fallen off the tree. It was still growing flowers that used to be buds! And I decided to call this type of growing flowers "hydrasynthesis". Now if you see something like this, leave a comment on the Scientific Times!
