All About Seeds
Seeds come in different sizes, shapes, and colors. Some
can be eaten and some can't. Some seeds germinate
easily while others need certain conditions to be met before
they will germinate.
Do you know that within every seed lives a tiny plant
or embryo? You can hold in your hand 500 radishes, many
thousands of petunias, or an entire meadow if you remember
that each seed is a plant!
Seeds travel! They can't just get up and walk to a new
location, but structures on the seed may allow it to move
to a new location. Some of the moving forces might be wind,
water, animals, and gravity. Look at the seeds below and
think about how they might travel from place to place.
