Love Trees so much. Last summer I befriended a tree . She was so good to me. Legs up Tree ( instead of wall ) is fabulous. She shaded me and let me use her to support my paddle board in moments I struggled. Trees feel your Love xo

EVIDENCE SUGGESTS THAT FORESTS ARE COMPLEX SUPERORGANISMS WHERE TREES LITERALLY COMMUNICATE

For years, the timber industry and traditional biology viewed trees as solitary competitors fighting for sunlight and nutrients. However, a growing body of research led by experts like forester Peter Wohlleben and ecologist Suzanne Simard reveals a much more communal reality.

Through a symbiotic network of underground fungal filaments trees engage in a sophisticated exchange of resources and information. Large “mother trees” act as central hubs, pumping liquid sugar to struggling saplings and even keeping ancient stumps alive for centuries. This hidden social network allows forests to function as resilient superorganisms rather than a collection of disconnected individuals.

Beyond sharing nutrients, trees utilise chemical, electrical, and scent-based signals to alert one another to impending threats. Additionally, a recent study showed many different plant species make ultrasonic sounds to communicate stress. In other words, plants “talk”.

A wide range of species from tomatoes to cacti emit ultrasonic popping sounds when they’re stressed that can be heard by insects like moths, and mammals like bats and mice. Scientists are listening to these sounds of distress to find new methods to diagnose, treat, and monitor plants without touching them.

When a giraffe grazes on an acacia or a caterpillar attacks a pine, the wounded tree releases distress gases that trigger neighbouring trees to bolster their chemical defences.

The discovery of this “swarm intelligence” is revolutionising forest conservation. By understanding that trees thrive through cooperation and kinship, researchers are advocating for more respectful management of the world’s woodlands, ensuring these ancient giants can continue their slow-motion dialogue for generations to come.
