There's something new under the sun

Plants  live secret, unseen lives - hidden in their magical world and on their  timescale. From the richest jungles to the harshest deserts, from the  snowiest alpine forest to the remotest steaming swamp, Green Planet  travels from one great habitat to the next, showing us that plants are  as aggressive, competitive and dramatic as the animals on our planet.  You will discover agents of death, who ruthlessly engulf their host  plant, but also those that form deep and complex relationships with  other species, such as the desert cacti who use nectar-loving bats to  pollinate. Although plants are undoubtedly the stars of the show, a  fascinating new light will be shed on the animals that interact with  them.

Using the latest technologies and showcasing over two  decades of new discoveries, Green Planet reveals the strange and  wonderful life of plants like never before - a life full of remarkable  behaviour, emotional stories and surprising heroes.
