Fibonacci

From a comment contribution by Ian Hristo in answer to post: Beanstalks in dubio.
“Plants follow Fibonacci's numbers as a growth pattern (more concerning the leaves and their growth pattern), we just want to make them grow along a straight line, so it is asking for trouble... But Fibonacci is about LINEair recursion so the word line is in here. Fibonacci lived in pre-Renaissance period >(1202).”
The Fibonacci numbers are Nature's numbering system. They appear everywhere in Nature, from the leaf arrangement in plants, to the pattern of the florets of a flower, the bracts of a pinecone, or the scales of a pineapple. The Fibonacci numbers are therefore applicable to the growth of every living thing, including a single cell, a grain of wheat, a hive of bees, and even all of mankind.

The beans have reached the top. Now it’s up to them which pattern they’re gonna chose. Ucello may have thought lineair perspective lovely, this is pretty too.
