Fossils are essentially bodies containing all the details concerning the relevant plant, its
every branch and leaf, the number of those leaves, their shape, what color the bark will
be and how thick, the width and number of the tubes carrying nutrients and water, the
height of the plant, whether or not it produces fruit and if it does, the tastes, scents, sha-
pes and color of those fruits. And just like the plants they belong to, they have remained
unchanged for millions of years.
