Venus Flytrap

By: Blake

The type of plant I chose was Sundew. Sundew is another word for Venus flytrap. It grows in North Carolina. It is a furry plant. Sundew Flowers eat bugs. They have hairs so that when a bug touches the hairs it shuts. A Venus flytrap has seven leaves.

My flower is cacti.  The cacti has thorns, hairs, and scales.  It grows in North America, South America,  Southern Canada, and South-West USA.  The cacti can absorb up to 3,000 liters of water in 10 days .  They can grow on one another. Cacti sometimes grow long tubes.

 

 

 

My Plant Report

By: Justin

The flower that I picked for my plant report is the poppy.  One thing I learned was that poppies have dark blue pollen.  the California Poppy grows in California.You do not water Oriental Poppies after they bloom. There are more than four thousand different species of poppies. Poppies dislike to be transplanted.

 

My Plant Report

 By: Ben

 

My type of plant is Rosa Abraham Derby. My plant is large and it has a soft peach color on the inside of it and a yellow on the outside. I found several facts about the Rosa Abraham Derby. At the south equator there are no rose species around that area. The first rose breeder was the first president George Washington. The Biltmore estate in North Carolina has 2300 roses in their rose garden.
