Roots. Roots seem to be the best thing since sliced bread for plants. Not only do they absorb nutrients and water, they can perform so many other functions. They can store nutrients and organic materials. They keep the plant from blowing away and the topsoil from vanishing with the wind. They can be big and sociopathic(taproots) or small and in such numbers as to make them just clumps of awesome. And they can be tasty. Onions, potatoes, stuff like that. All roots. Ginger. Root. Root beer. No brainer, comes from a root. Seriously, we should get some of these. We should all lay down roots. (literally).

Or not. I like moving around too much to do that.
