Often breezes would blow. When a breeze would blow, the pansy would open the stomata on their leaves and stems, and breathe in the gaseous hormones and other things carried by the wind from neighboring plants. They would take deep inhales of what next community way the wind had picked up and drifted toward them. They would let the feelings and experiences of their neighbors soak into their phylum, and percolate down to their roots, where they would exchange chemicals with soil enzymes.
