The Power of Plants Race to Grow and Breed

Just like animals, the lives of plants are dominated by the need to become strong and pass on genes to the next generation – a race to grow and breed. They must race to beat their competition to the best light spots, and to make the most of perilously short seasons. And also like in the animal kingdom, different species have developed a near unending list of strategies to ensure their legacy is passed on. Our ideas about plants need a seed change – it's time to respect the power of plants.
