- Description
- More kinds of plants are crammed together in the tropical rainforests than anywhere else on earth. The result is astonishing beauty and intense competition - a plant battleground. New filming techniques allow us to enter the plants’ world and see it from their perspective, and on their timescale. From fast-growing trees, to flowers that mimic dead animals; from life and death battles to reach the light, to the secret behind every raindrop. This is a journey into a magical world that operates on a different timescale to our own.
