About Plants
- Plants usually have a part of them that is green. Most often this is their leaves, but some plants have no leaves like a cactus.
- Some plants are wild and other plants are cultivated plants.
- We get fruits and vegetables from some plants but some plants have poisonous fruit that we can't eat.
Survival
- To survive a plant needs water, warmth and light.
- An adult plant will wilt if it does not get enough water and then it could die.
- An adult plant will die if it gets too cold and wilt and then die it if gets too hot.
- An adult plant will not be able to make its own food if there is not enough light so the plant will lose its leaves and go into a dormant state.
Germination
- When a seed is planted, if the conditions are right it will germinate and start to grow into an adult plant.
- If there is not enough water, and it is too cold or too hot, the seed will not germinate.
