An evergreen tree is a tree that has all of its leaves.
A deciduous tree is a tree that is losing its leaves.
A plant starts with a seed, roots, stem and petals.
Roots take in water and nutrients from the soil, leaves absorb sunlight, and make food for the plant, the stem supports the leaves and flowers, the petals attract insects.
Plants give us air and food.
Just like we need things to survive, plants also need things to grow and survive.
Plants need 5 things to survive: air, light, water, space and soil.
Too much water is not good for a plant.
Some plants need different amounts of light.
Seeds and bulbs need water to grow but most do not need light. This is because they have a store of food inside them.
Plants that receive all of the 5 things they need to survive will grow big and strong.
Those plants that don't have all 5 things may grow only a little bit of they might not grow at all.
