Fractal broccoli

Romanesco broccoli is an edible flower of the species Brassica oleracea and a variant form of cauliflower. This vegetable resembles cauliflower but is a light green color and the inflorescence (the bud) has an approximate fractal character, with the branched meristems making a logarithmic spiral.
