  • Some plants have a real party trick. Who needs fireworks when you can do this? We're going to take a look at eight exploding plants that will blow your mind. 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.😂😂😂

    I get that these are your top pick, but they are not the top most dangerous seeds.
    There are exploding African seeds that. are important to know about. and I'm disappointed that they're so hard to find on here. I ran across some in a video but to directly look for them is impractical.
