The caster may only learn what the plant knows — which may be very little, depending on the plant's location, height, age and ability to see beyond the direct foliage that is it's habitat. The plant cannot volunteer information, but will provide honest, generous answers to general questions. Moving plants will know more than rooted ones, and intelligent plants will know more than unintelligent.
