A parallel plant ecosystem simulation, running on a computer cluster with commodity graphic cards, is performed to simulate and visualize large groups of plants. With a scalable architecture, the system can simulate very large and complex plant ecosystem in much shorter time than the traditional. The extreme complexity is first simplified by using multilevel models, and then dividing into multiple parts and simulating parallel. The entire simulation process is visualized in an immersive mode approximately in real time by rendering the results locally and concatenated to a large display wall.
