Synopsis
Without plants, there would be no food, no animals of any sort, no life on earth at all. Yet for most of the time their lives remain a secret to us, hidden, private events.The reason is merely a difference of time. Plants live on a different time-scale from ours. Though not obviously to the naked eye, they are constantly on the move: developing, fighting, avoiding or exploiting predators or neighbours, struggling to find food, to increase their territories, to reproduce themselves, to find and hold a place in the sun. We only need to learn to look.

David Attenborough reaches the climax of his journey into the world of plants.

Episode 4 : The Social Struggle
January. 26,1995
David Attenborough looks at the extraordinary battles for survival that are fought in the plant world.

Episode 3 : Flowering
January. 19,1995
Flowers are the most eye-catching feature of plants, but they are there for only one thing - sex. In order to procreate, a male seed from one flower must be carried to the female parts of another. Flashy colours and lurid perfumes entice a host of animal couriers to collect their rewards.
Episode 2 : Growing
January. 12,1995
David Attenborough presents time-lapse photography that reveals how new leaves fight for a place in the sun, and examines the ingenious methods that plants use to defend themselves from animal attack.

January. 05,1995
David Attenborough's incredible journey into the world of plants.
