How would the world be different if plants evolved for sentience but animals (including humans) didn’t?

if plants were smart they'd evolve into animals.

well using ourselves as an (the only) example, sentience is very calorie intensive and i just don't see how you're going to get all you need staying rooted in one place

They would have to be very widely distributed, and perhaps not have the sentience be restricted to a single member of the species, or even biome.

I wonder how they'd influx on the environment. If they could control what they produced do you think they could form symbiotic relations or train animals to do what they want.
