Animated watercolor lifecycle from seed to flower

Reusable prompt

Create a self-contained 16-second animated SVG showing a seed swelling, cracking, growing roots and a stem, opening into a flower, receiving a butterfly, losing its petals, and returning to a seed underground.

Use a 1280×720 viewBox and a watercolor-paper aesthetic. Animate with SMIL or CSS only so the file still moves inside an img element. Use no scripts, fonts, or external assets. Keep the SVG valid, compact, and seamlessly looping.
