I once nearly got a fax from an orange but halfway through it ran out of juice.

I used to text a grape, but I stopped when her pleasant responses suddenly turned into a wine.

Maybe they should spend their time creating super plants. One's the can produce 100X the oxygen while cleaning the air of all toxins and ones that produce a food that contains all the nutrients we need as a species. You know, something actually useful. Don't get me wrong I get why, but why though?

The jokes write themselves, don't they.

In a way that's kind of scary. Not sure how I feel about eating nanobots, heh. It would be an incredible way to monitor plants individual needs. 

But in in a floral companion plant to be utilized as living sensors would be kind of neat. For example, I plant a lot of marigolds and zinnias around my veggie gardens. Those would be useful as monitor plants. Though I might not- the bees would then be eating nanobots and really not sure what that might do.

They say members of Congress send emails, so I'm sure a plant can do it.
