=September 29, 2014 = For this week's science discovery I did a plant called Coral Bells (Heuchera). Coral Bells to me look like Maple Leaves. They are commonly either brown, green or red and they can grow to be 12-18 inches tall. Coral Bells are very common in North America. In conclusion, Coral Bells are very beautiful plants.

For this week's Science Discovery I was walking to my Grandma's house and saw a small shrub that i had never seen before. I asked my Grandmother about it and she said that it was a Hydrangea. A Hydrangea is a beautiful shrub that has green leaves and can be multiple colors. These shrubs can grow one to three meters tall. It blooms from late spring into summer. In conclusion, the Hydrangea is a beautiful and colorful shrub.

For my Science Discovery, I did the Goldenrod (Solidago). This is a beautiful yellow plant that brings lots of color to fields. I see them almost everywhere I go! The Goldenrod is very common in North America and South America. These plants grow in open areas such as fields and savannas. In conclusion, the Goldenrod is a wonderful, brightly colored plant.

For my Science Discovery this week I did a plant called a Sumac (Rhus). Yesterday afternoon, I was riding my four-wheeler and happened to see a reddish cone type flower with leaves growing on a small tree. I asked my family about it and my uncle said that it was a Sumac. I looked it up and it turns out that the Sumac is used for many seasonings and flavorings. It is also very common in North America and Africa.
