Plants Are Secretly Listening to Bees

Snapdragons may not have ears, but they’ve got a remarkable sense for sound, especially when it comes to buzzing bees. A new study reveals that these colorful flowers can detect the vibrations made by pollinators and respond by producing more sweet nectar.

Scientists found that only the sounds of efficient bee species triggered this sugary boost, not ambient noise or less helpful insects. Researchers believe this is an evolved strategy to reward good pollinators while ignoring nectar-stealing freeloaders. The plants’ ability to respond may come from tiny vibration-sensitive cells that act like natural microphones. The discovery hints at a future where farmers could play specific sounds to boost pollination and crop yields without chemicals. As strange as it sounds, flowers may be active participants in the pollination process, one buzz at a time.
