Description

The forest is a beloved destination for many people. It is synonymous with tranquility and pristine nature.

The Secret Life of Trees sheds light on the dense vegetation of the forest and delves impressively into a mysterious universe... Amazing things happen in the forest: Trees communicate with each other. They not only lovingly grow their young but also care for their elderly and sick neighbors. Incredible? Yet true!

The distinguished forester Peter Wohlleben explores the hidden life of trees and presents us with an entirely new perspective on the forest – thus bringing to light astonishing facts. Trees have memory, exchange messages, feel pain, get sunburned, and develop wrinkles.

Some trees, such as oaks, communicate with each other using aromatic chemical substances. When, for example, a tree is attacked by insects, it emits aromatic substances, and all the trees in the surrounding area that receive this message arm themselves appropriately...
