Good Morning everyone. I hope you are all well. Are you all managing to get out and about and really looking at the plants and flowers around us? If you see anything interesting when you are out, take a photo and upload it.

THE LIFE CYCLE OF A FLOWERING PLANT

 

1. How are your seeds getting on?
2. I planted seeds from a melon.
3. I planted quite a few seeds in two different pots.
4. The first pot, I have been looking after them by putting them in the sunshine and watering them.
5. The second pot, I have put in the garage so I can compare them.
6. Is anything happening in either of your pots?
7. Mine are being very lazy!
8. Did you enjoy looking at the slow motion video from last week which showed seeds growing.
