Germination, the process through which plants disperse seeds so that they can sprout and grow into new plants can be a little tricky, given that plants are immobile. Some like dandelions use wind, others by growing prickly fruits that stick to the fur or spine of animals. Then there are those that yield sweet fruit that animals seek out and devour. However, in order for that to work successfully, those plants have to get it really right!

            I never knew a tiny plant can use rodents to their advantage. And I didn't know that a seed can taste like hot mustard. And I totally did not know that there is a plant called Mignonette.

                      That would be nasty. Fruit and mustard don't mix. (trust me from expieriences)
