So may it was "shoots, roots, flowers"?


I believe it's "Shoots, roots, flowers and fruits."



Good -- that rhymes, and has a nice beat.

Now drop the first comma.... :-)



N Shoots,
P Roots,
K Flowers and Fruits.

In context, the first comma should be there. It's not a sentence. It's a
list, and the comma is a list item separator.


Right, Warren, I know, now drop the comma, and parse it that way. Makes
a headline-style sentence. :-)
