Wow, this is amazing! Delving into the ancient past of a once-mighty plant - yes very Dr Seuss-ish, like Truffula trees. Love the leaf scars. Love the sporangia. Love the idea of spores. Love the idea of massive dragonflies (at a distance..)

Giant dragonflies, Dr Seuss trees, and all those uses for clubmosses—a great post, Anne!
