A plant a tree and me (2014)
Plants communicate with people, plants react to music,
plants have feelings.
This is the essence of The Secret Life of Plants, a book by
Peter Tompkins and
Christopher Bird, published in 1973. In the end, humans and
plants are closely
related, so it’s not strange that they ‘communicate’ to each
other. Humans seems
to be prevailing in this peculiar relationship. But if you
are standing in the jungle,
between these giant plants, that you also have in your living
room in a 50 cm
version, you feel super-tiny. You feel flabbergasted by the
power, the charisma
and the eternity that carry within them.
