About Flowers

A flower's job is reproduction: petals advertise, nectar pays the visitor, and pollen rides along on a bee's body to the next bloom. The clues here move between the parts (stamen, petal, bulb) and the flowers themselves, from sunflowers that track toward light as young plants to tulips grown from bulbs planted in fall. Orchids form one of the largest plant families on Earth, while a greenhouse lets growers hold summer conditions through winter.

Reach for this in a spring science unit, a garden club meeting, or any week the seed catalogs arrive.
