I chanced to buy a complete storybook of “My naughty little sister” in a charity shop and one of the stories was called “Bottle Tree”.
Almost two months ago we did an experiment with acorns – we planted a few in soil in pots and, of course, we had to try “the bottle tree”, which is basically a seed, suspended over water on toothpicks.
Today we have noticed the leaves on one of our Bottle Trees.
This was one of the six acorns we experimented on. The ones in soil didn’t stand a chance – no matter how many times I remind them – girls cannot remember to water the plants.
