We carried out an experiment using green food colouring, water and a stick of celery. We noticed that when the celery was put into the food colouring, the little tubes inside the celery started to change colour and they turned darker green! We learned that the water travels up the plant to feed all parts of it!
We carried out this experiment again, this time using red food colouring and it was much more clear to see! The celery plant and leaves at the top of the plant started to turn red - the water had travelled all the way to the top to help it to grow!
