But i love most the study you just shared here, haven't read or heard about that yet. I am not surprised that everything in the universe has their own unique way of communication, it is just us who don't know!

It's fasconating that we can learn so much form the natural world, I am advocate for bees, wie will be without fruit pretty soon if we do not care for them.

Unfortunately we got some night time temperatures in the 20's which damage the blooms on the outside of the branches.

I loved the UV look of the flowers...I hope that this year perhaps my native black cherry stick will put on new growth and perhaps a flower or 2. No bees here until April either unless we get a nice easy steady warm up.

Last year when I grew huge sunflowers it was really neat to watch them work. They were like an assembly line methodically working in a patterned circle to complete their job....Cerberus German shepherdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429615988299569447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335626764384885870.post-39376119666083985902013-02-23T18:44:02.856-05:002013-02-23T18:44:02.856-05:00I don't think we'll see bees before April....I don't think we'll see bees before April.

I have not heard this of this study on plants being able to communicate using electric fields. Very wonderful stuff!!! Great when they figure out how it is done, but it seems like the hair bristling is going to be the definitive answer. It seems most logical.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
