I have never seen any literature that suggested the a person could have telepathy with trees, delusions maybe,.... telepathy no.

In order to communcate telepathicly, the tree would need a mind. So technically, no.

However, I do beleive you can feel energy from a tree and sense it's feelings. That would be considered a form of communication, but it's not neccessarliy received via the mind.... you might feel it through your hands, your feet or in your belly for example.... feeling what the tree feels.

Yes, they can! The problem is, is that trees don't speak a human language so deciphering what they're saying can be a bit tricky. :) It's True!!! :)

Not according to this song:

"I Talk To The Trees Lyrics

I talk to the trees
But they don't listen to me
I talk to the stars
But they never hear me

The breeze hasn't time
To stop, and hear what I say
I talk to them all
In vain"

However, trees apparently talk to each other:

"Grants Pass, Ore. (AP) - Physicist Ed Wagner says he has found evidence that trees talk to each other in a language he calls W-waves.
"If you chop into a tree, you can see that adjacent trees put out an electrical pulse," said Wagner. "This indicates that they communicated directly."

"Explaining the phenomenon, Wagner pointed to a blip on a strip chart recording of the electrical pulse.

"It put out a tremendous cry of alarm," he said. "The adjacent trees put out smaller ones." .....

"People have known there was communication between trees for several years, but they've explained it by the chemicals trees produce," Wagner said.

"But I think the real communication is much quicker and more dramatic than that," he said. "These trees know within a few seconds what is happening. This is an automatic response."

"Wagner has measured the speed of W-waves at about 3 feet per second through the air.

"They travel much too slowly for electrical waves," he said. "They seem to be an altogether different entity. That's what makes them so intriguing. They don't seem to be electromagnetic waves at all."

And here's someone who thinks we can:

"Suddenly I wanted to talk to a tree.

To talk to a tree is strange, is it not? Yet no one thinks it odd for man to speak to something he cannot see or touch, something he calls “God”. No one thinks it bizarre that we listen too and are impelled into strange actions, like buying a certain soft drink because of an image on TV, which we cannot touch. Yet if we were to shake hands with a tree, something real with its roots in the ground, something that lives, grows, and rustles in the wind, something in which living birds nest and hatch their young. If we were to touch a tree and to speak to it, we might be considered very peculiar indeed. The tyranny of viewpoint, most often not our own, constricts us as surely as a horse's hobbles.

The Indians thought it ordinary to communicate with animals, plants and trees. Walking Buffalo of the Stony Indians Tribe in Canada said, “did you know that trees talk? They talk to each other and they'll talk to you if you listen. I have learned a lot from trees, something about the weather, something about animals, and something about the Great Spirit.”

I'm sure that my neighbours would have thought me quite daft had they seen me talking to this tree. But I was alone, and alone one has the right by that reason, to do as one pleases. Alone one is free, or ought to be, and so I thought, I shall see how it is to speak to a tree. I looked around first just to make sure none of my neighbours where around, but no one was watching and no one would hear me. Yet I had a difficult time bringing myself to do this simple, harmless thing.

We are as free as the barriers we have constructed around our minds permit us to be. Indeed, as we perceive it, insanity may be simply the elimination of all of the mind’s barriers. We know that trees do not talk, but how do we know? I might conclude that my neighbours also do not talk. I have never heard them speak, but that is because I have never spoken to them. "


So, what ther heck - why not give it a try? I mean, who knows: the trees might be a lot more interesting than many people are.

Do you really think trees have anything that interesting going on?

If you believe in the theory that we are all pieces of the same puzzle. All parts of the whole we call existence or life.

I did once. Right after I played checkers with Jesus and Jimi Hendrix.

Maybe if your Pocohantas. In the Disney movie, she spoke with Grandmother Willow all the time.
