Never ceases to amaze me – the way Life emerges.
How a small seed under the earth can create these stalks and leaves and push its way through to the sunlight!
How does that happen?
How does physical inanimate material become a sentient being?
I was reading an article by a scientist who works for Yves Rocher recently. He was discussing the ways in which plants communicate with each other and with their environments. He mentioned some tropical plants which can create and emit volatile organic compounds when they need water. These compounds can create clouds and provoke rainfall. Wow!
There is so much to learn and to be understood, isn’t there?
Winter is coming to an end if life is sprouting =)
Have you seen the video about plants feeling pain? Very fascinating stuff, indeed. You can probably find it on YouTube.
Yes! Scary! Just goes to show how much we take plants for granted I think
Oops, couldn’t see the article, I think it’s all in French 😦
but yes, that’s the nature of life, sprouting, growing, moving of its own impulses and instincts towards propagation and all
Yep it’s French. Don’t think there is an English translation available but I just wanted to acknowledge the source!
