Do plants also have 5 senses?

Put yourself in the shoes of a plant and discover how it perceives the world around it.

How do plants know which way to grow? And how do they know where light comes from? Do they feel anything when a leaf is cut off ? Come and discover how plants perceive the world without eyes, ears or mouths!

This workshop is part of the Geneva Botanic Garden Ateliers verts series.On Wednesday afternoons, children are invited to share our passion for the world of plants and botany in a fun and educational way. Themed investigations, sensory discoveries, botanical explorations, and many other activities are included in the programme. These workshops are carried out in the heart of our living collections by our curators, gardeners and scientists, in collaboration with volunteers from Uni3, Geneva's University for Seniors.
