I've read some studies that talk about how cabbages in a patch release a warning scent when one of them is being harvested. The scent actually propagates, and even non harvested cabbages release the scent further down the patch to warn other cabbages.
That would be response to stimuli, which doesn't indicate sentience. Interesting though.
