My xturtle package 

http://www.rg16.at/~python/xturtle/download.html

contains a demoViewer and a set of 30+ demoscripts, among them two
Lindenmayer examples (of course only twodimensional). One of them 
lets two (different) plants grow in parallel (using generators):

The other one, more simple, is an example from ethno mathematics.
I'm sure you would enjoy it if you had the time to view it.

Regards,
Gregor
