[|September 4, 2014]    A few basic rules ....... Please read and understand...... We do this for a better understanding for the page.

1. Before guessing about a plant’s identity, scroll up through the previous comments to see if it has already been guessed. 2. Please try to post only one photo of one plant per post, no multiple photo posts, which are confusing for guessing. Try to include the plant’s location and what season its with you i.e. Spring in Southern Hemisphere is Autumn in the Northern bit! 3. Because we only see photos, not actual plants, members of PI cannot offer advice on the on the toxicity, edibility or medical use of any plant posted. ANY member stepping over this rule will be deleted and banned WITHOUT QUESTION whether research is correct or otherwise. 4. If you have a general gardening/landscape/disease/pest question, please post it to a page suited to that topic. Any mention of a cure/control etc or reference against or for a company is therefore not allowed in any circumstances. 5. Have fun and please be polite. This is an international site so English is not everyone’s first language. 6. No advertising. No rude comments or rude pictures. 7. If you can not understand the basic rules you will be deleted as a member.

[|Plant thinking] - [|Michael Marder] is working on a philosophy of vegetal life. His approach combines ethics, phenomenology, Freudian psychoanalysis and botany to present the case for what he calls plant thinking. He wishes to further the conversation on plants in the way it has taken hold around animals, and in the process bring human thought closer to its roots.

[|Talking Plants] - Can one plant talk to another plant? Can a group of plants of one species talk to a group of plants from a different species? These are some of the research questions being asked by Dr Monica Gagliano of the University of Western Australia.

YouTube Connie Carter describes the work of the intrepid group of scientists from the U.S. and beyond who traveled the world collecting plants to enrich botanical knowledge and their nations' gardens.
