Zeolitic wood structures made by a seeded templating process offer new ways of investigating the complex wood morphology. The technique can also be used to create hierarchical porous zeolitic materials (see Figure). The seeded growth strategy shows potential for the extension to any organisms with hierarchical structure and might make multilevel porous zeolites of other types feasible.
