       本片中心是英国皇家植物园——邱园，位于伦敦西南部的泰晤士河南岸,被联合国指定为世界文化遗产。邱园始建于1759年,原本是英皇乔治三世的皇太后奥格斯汀公主(Augustene)一所私人皇家植物园，起初只有3.6公顷,经过200多年的发展，已扩建成为有120公顷的规模宏大的皇家植物园，加上1965年在距邱园50公里的苏沙斯(Sussex)区开辟了一个240公顷的Wakehurst卫星植物园，主园加卫星园共有360公顷，成为规模巨大的世界级植物园。

       目前邱园收集了全世界超过5万种植物，活的树木便有25万棵之多。邱园植物标本馆收集了500万份标本，图书馆藏75万份世界植物图书和文献，与74个国家的306家研究所有联系，收集了全球重要的植物学期刊。 邱园内建有26个专业花园：水生花园、树木园、杜鹃园、杜鹃谷、竹园、玫瑰园、草园、日本风景园、柏园等。园内还有与植物学科密切相关的建筑，如标本馆、经济植物博物馆和进行生理、生化、形态研究的实验室。此外邱园还有40座有历史价值的古建筑物。经过了几百年的发展和进步，邱园已经从单一娱乐性的植物收集和展示转向植物科学和经济的应用研究。

      在邱园，游人不仅可以参观各种植物,在夜晚还可以参加各种有趣的活动：在荷花盛开的时候，小孩可以穿上小雨靴站在水边，用手灯一朵朵地观赏睡莲晚间的开放，家长以此教会孩子们去欣赏那些细腻的自然景象。一年四季,植物园里都有用不同系列的花命名的活动，如“蓝铃周末”或“郁金香周末”。即使在冬天，大家也可以观察藏在树皮下面的嫩芽，体验冬天里生命特有的乐趣。

Using pioneering techniques in 3D macro and time-lapse photography, he traces them from their beginnings on land to their vital place in nature today, exposing new revelations along the way. He moves from our time scale to theirs, revealing the true nature of plants as creatures that are every bit as dynamic and aggressive as animals. And he does all this in one unique place, a microcosm of the whole plant world where some 90% of all known plant species are represented: The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. This spectacular adventure through the Kingdom of Plants is so immersive and compelling it has the capacity to amaze even the least green-fingered.

Episode 1: Life in the Wet Zone
Duration: 00:52:27

     David begins his journey inside the magnificent Palm House, a unique global rainforest in London. Here, he explores the extraordinary plants that are so well adapted to wet and humid environments and unravels the intimate relationships between wet zone plants and the animals that depend on them.
    It was in the wet zones of the world that plants first moved on to land and in the Waterlily House David reveals how flowers first evolved some 140 million years ago.
     Watching a kaleidoscope of breath-taking time-lapses of these most primitive of flowers swelling and blooming in 3D, he is able to piece together the very first evolutionary steps that plants took to employ a wealth of insects to carry their precious pollen for the first time.
     David discovers clues to answer a question that even had Charles Darwin stumped: how did flowering plants evolve so fast to go on to colonise the entire planet so successfully? He marvels with signature enthusiasm at orchids, the largest family of flowering plants.
     Many of these captivating flowers evolved to be pollinated by a single insect species and in doing so developed such complicated contraptions of pollination it’s hard to imagine anything more beautiful. One orchid even looks like a bee.

Episode 2: Solving the Secrets
Duration: 00:52:18

    David uses the latest 3D technology to explore a world beyond the confines of our human senses. He begins with the secret world of plant movement and uses sinister carnivorous plants to show just how active plants can be.
    Bladderwort utricularia is a pond-dweller that is among the fastest known, its traps snapping shut in less than a millisecond.
    As the seasons change, David demonstrates how plants operate on a different time scale to us; how they modify their lives according to the time of year. We discover insects’ hidden links with plants, both as pests and pollinators. UV-sensitive 3D cameras reveal the invisible alter-ego of plants and their flowers’ mesmerizing patterns; a parallel-dimension of strange colours and stunning patterns through which plants communicate with them.
    With the aid of visual effects, David steps among the swirling vortices of plant scent; communication signals with which plants are inextricably plugged in to the natural world. And using a tuning fork, he demonstrates how plants and insects can even communicate with music.
     As autumn envelopes the Gardens, fungi reveal themselves not as the enemies of plants but their vital allies. In Kew’s atmospheric Fungarium, David discovers a specimen that has the power of mind control and another that lives underground where it has grown to be so big it can be counted as the largest single organism on the planet. It is 6 times bigger than Kew Gardens itself.
     David concludes the film in the Princess of Wales Conservatory, where he meets an old friend, the great Titan arum. At 8ft tall, it is the largest flower in the world and a plant he remembers from a previous filming trip to Sumatra. Using heat sensitive cameras, David reveals the Titan arum’s secrets, how it uses a combination of heat and powerful scent to punch a hole in the stratified layers of air in the rainforest, enabling it to broadcast its presence across vast distances.

Episode 3: Survival
Duration: 00:52:18

    David discovers the plants that have evolved to shed their dependency on water enabling them to survive in the driest environments.
    The story begins at midnight in midsummer as David steps into the Princess of Wales Conservatory to witness the extraordinary nocturnal blooming of a cactus. The queen of the night, with its giant flowers, is the centre piece of a stunning symphony of cacti blooms that burst open in the desert (and at Kew) at night. In a mesmerizing 3D slow motion sequence, we discover the extraordinary connections between cacti and their natural pollinators: bats.
    The scene typifies the unique splendour of the 3D experience as bats seem to fly out of the screen and into the viewers’ living room.
    As the sun rises, David meets other amazing plants. Species like the century plant, the Agave franzosini, which grows steadily for over 50 years, only to then flower itself to death with one mighty telegraph pole sized bloom which literally bursts out of the roof of Kew’s green house.  
    Cracking the code to plants’ survival strategies is the key to protecting their future and Kew have built a high tech long-term solution fifty miles south of the Gardens. Described as mankind’s ultimate insurance policy, and with 10% already safely stored deep frozen, Kew’s Millennium Seed Bank has the capacity to store seeds from the vast majority of remaining species of plant on the planet, thus saving plants from extinction in the future.
