Happy about these plant-handbook proofs and excited for the upcoming volume put together by @isabelkranz.bsky.social & @[email protected]. I wrote about vegetal imagination in outer space, radishes on the ISS, and the "astrobiological apriori" – stay tuned! #Astrobiology #Plantstudies #HistSci

Though a goldmine for the curious botanist, Harewood Plains is also an area under threat — from damage caused by off-road dirt bikes, ATVs and tree poaching — in part because so little is still known about it.

> Plants do not suffer in silence. Instead, when thirsty or stressed, plants make “airborne sounds,” according to a study published today in Cell.
> Plants that need water or have recently had their stems cut produce up to roughly 35 sounds per hour, the authors found. But well-hydrated and uncut plants are much quieter, making only about one sound per hour.
> The reason you have probably never heard a thirsty plant make noise is that the sounds are ultrasonic — about 20–100 kilohertz. That means they are so high-pitched that very few humans could hear them. Some animals, however, probably can. Bats, mice and moths could potentially live in a world filled with the sounds of plants, and previous work by the same team has found that plants respond to sounds made by animals, too.Source (including audio recordings!!): https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-00890-9

Too deep into my book project to write anything else right now, but the new Disney movie "Strange World" reminds me of my sad neglected blog. I should do a Christmas or New Year's post on paedagogical plants in recent movies. Or The Moral of the Plant Story.

My awesome plant studies colleague Joela Jacobs has published an exciting article on plant sexuality and human-plant-interactions (real and imagined):
"These Lusting, Incestous, Perverse Creatures": A Phytopoetic History of Plants and Sexuality
