Here's How Trees Communicate!

Did you know trees have a hidden social life? They communicate and share resources through an underground network.

Fungi act as connectors, spreading beneath the ground and on tree roots. They help with nutrient exchange and communication.

Mycorrhizal networks connect multiple trees. They share nutrients, support struggling trees, and even recognize kin.

"Mother trees" play a vital role, recognizing their relatives and aiding their growth. Research suggests they can distinguish kin.

Trees cooperate more than they compete. In diverse, healthy forests, they share resources for collective longevity.

Understanding tree networks is vital for forest preservation. Let's protect these intricate connections against climate change and human impact.
