Steve Spangler Science: Color Changing Carnation Flowers

Where does the water really go when a plant is watered?

With this experiment, you can discover for yourself how essential the functions of stems are to plant growth. As the colored water is absorbed, you will be able to see how it moves into the flower and will be amazed when the petals of a white carnation change color.
