"Why are plants green? How does water move through a leaf? What are the parts of a flower? Janice VanCleave's Plants includes 20 fun and simple experiments that allow you to discover the answers to these and other fascinating questions about plants, plus dozens of additional suggestions for developing your own science fair projects.
Use a cooking pot and plot of grass to discover why green grass turns yellow. Make a model of a plant cell from peanuts, gelatin, and a plastic bag. Grow pinto beans in a plastic cup to learn how seedlings develop. All experiments use inexpensive household materials and involve a minimum of preparation and cleanup."
