Today’s Friday Film is ‘What Plants Talk About’, an episode of Nature from PBS.

When we think about plants, we don’t often associate a term like “behavior” with them, but experimental plant ecologist JC Cahill wants to change that. The University of Alberta professor maintains that plants do behave and lead anything but solitary and sedentary lives. What Plants Talk About teaches us all that plants are smarter and much more interactive than we thought!

For more information about plant senses, read my review of What a Plant Knows on the Native Plants and Wildlife Gardens blog.
