The Private Life of Plants is a BBC nature documentary series written and presented by David Attenborough, first transmitted in the UK from 5 January 1995.
A study of the growth, movement, reproduction and survival of plants, it was the second of Attenborough's specialised surveys following his major trilogy that began with Life on Earth. Each of the six 50-minute episodes discusses the aspects of a plant's life-cycle, using examples from around the world.

The Private Life of Plants is a BBC nature documentary series written and presented by David Attenborough. Each of the six 50-minute episodes discusses the aspects of a plant's life-cycle, using examples from around the world. The series utilises time-lapse sequences extensively in order to grant insights that would otherwise be almost impossible. Plants live on a different time scale, and even though their life is highly complex and often surprising, most of it is invisible to humans unless events that happen over months or even years are shown within seconds. Like many traditional wildlife documentaries, it makes use of almost no computer animation. The series also discusses fungi, although as it is pointed out, these do not belong to the kingdom of plants.

Alright...
Anyone with a thirst for knowledge or a love of nature can watch this. You will never see plants the same way again.
