The will of plants in their growth is the result of a two-step process, the distribution of a botanical hormone, auxin, according to some stimulus, and the subsequent cell growth guided by these chemical signals. The structures are produced through an obedience to a signal, one that is then consumed, but is also constantly being renewed throughout a plant system. The veination of a leaf seeks to produce an optimal network that will consume auxin sources as rapidly as possible, which entails a fanning search for the hormone. The replication of this behavior makes for widespread networks, albeit ones with fragile extensions that lack a sense of gravity or their own extension over it.
