One non-logged-in user added "mistletoe" as a plant exibiting rapid movement. I can't confirm this. Anyone have a source?

Side note: I'm not convinced this list is complete. Also need a good definition of "Rapid Plant Movement". I'm partial to something like "movement that can be clearly seen, normally taking a fraction of a second to complete".

I added the White Mulberry to the list of Plants that spread seeds or pollen by rapid movement. See http://www.springerlink.com/link.asp?id=75144776908t3624 for a peer reviewed article confirming this.131.111.8.97 16:18, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
