No, they have no nerve cells. Nerves and a centralized brain are necessary for feelings.
Even the carnivorous plants lack feelings.

This is something we may never know. Sure, some will say that vegetables have no nervous system. What they're doing is comparing the human body to that of a non-human body, We must have a nervous system in order to feel, but does that mean that all other living things must have the same. We have no bark, we have no leaves, or all the hundreds of other substances that make up other living things.
Because we call a brain-dead person a vegetable does not mean we know all about what really goes on in nature.

of course not - they have no nervous system - why do you think they call brain-dead people vegetables ?

Yes, dont some feel soft (mushy peas) and dont some feel hard (carrots)! Everything therefore has feelings!

We had some roses and my mum and sister used to sing to 'em. they would then bloom which lead me to believe that 'yes' plants are alive and have 'some' feeling...
