The secret language of flowers | Heather Whitney | TEDxSalford
Dr Heather Whitney is a molecular biologist by training, but now uses ideas from across the scientific spectrum (from optical physics to beekeeping) to study plant-animal interactions. As both a researcher and speaker, she hopes to show that plants are much more sneaky than is usually suspected…

Great video …. blew me away 😉
❤❤❤
flower , fungus are sources of intelligence.
Plantastic talk! Thank you for the beautiful opening on plant "communication".
beyond the scientific knowledge, flowers play a huge role in healing … the earth and ourselves … she is speaking about what we SEE with our eyes, but there is much more too .. energetically, which can also be perceived and interacted with .. .
Please suggest me flower medicine for bipolar disorder
Thank you for interesting video. Best wishes to the entomologists and beekeepers and bee lovers and flowers lovers!
FABULOUS
Petals are sensory boards for bugs.
This is fascinating. I'm reading a book on Victorian Flower Meanings, that's what lead me to this wonderful video.
This was a good Ted Talk. I love flowers and plants
I would like to know how to learn more about flowers, such an interesting topic to me.

There are several dictionaries in 19th century that are considered as language of flowers . The main interesting is the dictionaries of 18 th century the meaning is different . I had explored a few of them much earlier than the book " Language of flowers " was written . I studied it because we wrote an article about the symbolism of ornamental painting in the monastery of the Beheading of John the Baptist. when I have read the book the language of Flowers for the first time it seemed to me that we partly used the same books . But we had explored more than author had mentioned .
Nze…..
Read The Will of a Wildflower.
Speaker was nervous 😟 but it was still interesting
I'm really into flowers, this is so curious, I would love to do sort of a specification in this area of biology in the future. The idea of working with molecules of flowers and interactions with other kingdoms amazes me. Soo good speech, thanks for the pieces of information as well.
can i take your speech for my speech for school assigment. is that wrong.
I love this kind of study, you will get to know the life of flowers and bees…that part of the world. Now days they spray chemicals like pesticides and green glow, which all of these are very dangerous for bees, which also making them away from the flowers. I personally as a florist I stopped using those products 8 years ago, and use natural water for the plants to shine naturally… and if I feel not healthy spraying it even to myself , I thought it will change the nature of the plant to. I don't even use hair spray for my own hair too:) I can't breath in hair spray…
Plants probably have have intelligence, and can communicate through the root systems and mycelium. Much like our internet. Kind of like what they said about the root connections that movie 'Avatar'. Terrence McKenna had some interesting things to say about plants as well. We do not give plants, or nature as a whole, a lot of thought as we are all struggling to make paper dollars we then use to buy anything, and everything under the sun. This trend has brought pollution and destruction of whole species, and eco systems. Humans haven't learned to stop blowing themselves up, let alone consideration for others.
I didn't know these differences between tipes of cells, it's quite curious. Nature each time amazes us.
this was very interesting
thank you :))
Sorry darwin you have got no chance in the 21st Century Science. Those Electron Microscopes reveal the intricate details even in the flowers.. No chance for a brainless flower to be so complicated. goodbye evolution forever.
cool thanks for your insightful opinion
nothing interesting because the content was very mediocre
Very interesting
thank you for this interesting & amazing presentation!
you are lobelia
you are robearia
what a beautiful insight
Holy Quran (Taha) (Pharaoh) said: "Who then, O Moses, is the Lord of you two?" (Moses brother Haroon)
Moses answered: "Our Lord is He Who gave to each (created) thing its form and nature, and further gave (it) guidance."
Thanks a lot for this!
