Following these, in some cases, hundreds and thousands of years long time scales it is made clear that nothing ever really ends – instead it is being transformed to feed new and younger life. Symbiosis between plants and plants, plants and fungi, and plants and animals is covered, sometimes leaving one wondering where one life, one organism ends and the other starts. Is there really such a distinction?

This is truly an amazing set of documentaries, with beautiful time lapse footage and worth every minute of your time. Watch this if you want to see the web of life in working, singing praises to plants.
