About this work

Description

How does a Venus flytrap know when to snap shut? How do roses know when it's spring? Do they actually remember the weather? Now, in 'What a Plant Knows', biologist Daniel Chamovitz presents an exploration of how plants experience our shared Earth in terms of sight, smell, taste, touch, hearing, memory and even awareness.
