Plant mimics the leaf shape of *fake plastic plant*, suggesting *plant vision* rather than chemical signalling through volatiles or horizontal gene transfer.
"Recent research into plant perception and communication has provided new surprising details into the life of plants enjoying not only ability of communication through chemical volatiles but also perception of acoustic signals. Moreover, research done on the visual capabilities of algae and protists clearly suggest vision already in unicellular organisms. Experimental testing of the ocelli-based plant vision, as it was done by Harold Wager, would be the logical next step in our quest for understanding the plant sensory complexity."
