It seems like Roald Dahl may have been onto something after all: if you hurt a plant, it screams.

      Imagine if instead of a podcast or audiobook or symphonic power metal you had to listen to the screams of your lawn as you mowed its life short

        It gets worse – that doesn’t kill the grass. It just mutilates it.

        That’s what the fresh cut grass smell is.

      You know why freshly mown grass smells so nice?
      The smell is the plant’s defense against grazing animals, as it attracts predators.
