Scientists have created a kind of cyborg flower: living roses with tiny electronic circuits threaded through their vascular systems.

The miniscule electronic polymers are inserted into the plant.
The strange cyberplants could one day make it possible to tell flowers when to bloom to avoid an impending frost, or when to put out hormones to prevent a drought.
