The sound of music in your orchard - Prince Charles might have been right!

摘要

In a 1986 interview, England's Prince Charles discussed his gardening habits, commenting, "I just come and talk to the plants, really. Very important to talk to them; they respond." The theory that plants benefit from human conversation dates to 1848,when German Professor Gustav Fechner published the book "Nanna (Soul-life of Plants)." The idea is a popular one, and has spawned several more books and even an album — recorded in 1970 by an enterprising dentist -titled "Music to Grow Plants By." Butwill crooning compliments to your ficus really have any effect on its growth researcher Alexa Stevenson, asks in a Penn State university broadcast.
