The Secret Intelligence of Plants

We have known for a long time that plants move, but today we are discovering that they can sense, touch, and taste. They react to stimuli of various kinds. They also have a keen ear, memory, and can perceive shapes. Plants interact much more than we believed with the external world. We knew they were sensitive to temperature, sunlight, humidity... Recent research proves that plants possess many other surprising senses, leading us to look at them with fresh eyes.
