These plants, with their explosive seed-shooting capabilities, can be found all over the world. Scientists think the plants are making sure their seeds disperse without animals carrying them to new locations.

    I was at a new rich friend’s garden and I went secretly to pick a flower to collect the seed. I did not want to ask because I didn’t want them to think that I’m using them so I quietly went into their garden and pretended I was checking their flowers out. I had one flower in mind already so as I went to pick it as I touch it it exploded and I screamed so loud. Everyone ran to me and asked if I was ok and they asked me what happened. I was embarrassed and explained to me that their flower exploded when I touch it. They said that they didn’t know about it.😂😂😂
