i am trying to find a plant that i had a few weeks ago. From what i understand, it is a plant that is not indigenous to the US, but is similar in movement to that of the venous fly trap, in that when it is touched, the leaves will retract in a matter of seconds. it is more of a bush with stems coming from the main tree and on each offshoot/stem of the tree there are a row of leaves on one side of the stem and a row of leaves on the other side. if you stroke down the middle of the stem, the leaves on both sides will retract into each other. please help and let me know the name of it! thank you!

I know that plants use a cholorphyll to photosynthesize and thats what makes them green but my neighbor has a white plant and i can't figure out how it makes energy if white reflects all colors.

According to the law of natural selection and survival of the fittest, all life forms evolved over billions of years into intelligent life. The amoeba became a fish, which became a lizard, which became a monkey which became man. But what about plant life? Where did plants come from and how did we get so may different varieties? Did the fern evolve into an apple tree?

I read somewhere that the sense of smell, being most related to our brain stem, wherever that is, presumably the lowest point, where the 'stem' usually is, leaving the roots to their own devices, is the last to fail us when we take our leave of this mortal coil. Is that true?

From what I hear atropine is the antidote to poisoning through nerve agents. Datura is a common plant in that grows in north america that contains naturally occuring atropine but is normally toxic to ingest. However if atropine is not immediatly availible could you just pick a datura growing on the sidewalk and stop the nerve agent poisoning by eating it?

It's a pretty detailled photograph, but you can't see much because the flowers are shut on all the plants, and they don't have any leaves at that level. They were tangled in with other plants so I couldn't really take a better pic than this. It's growing in the shade in a hedgerow next to a farmer's field in Leicestershire, England. What is it?
