Chile: Communication Among Plants
Potted plants are seen in Osorno, Chile, on June 27, 2026. Plants communicate with each other through chemical and electrical signals, even in confined spaces like pots. They can emit specific scents to send danger signals, share nutrients, and warn of pests or droughts, with proximity being essential for this communication. (Photo by Fernando Lavoz/NurPhoto)
