The Plant Fairy

A plant has 6 main parts: Roots (underground, absorb water and minerals, anchor plant), Stem (above ground, carries water from roots to leaves), Leaves (make food using sunlight, called photosynthesis), Flowers (produce seeds for reproduction), Fruits (protect seeds, we eat many), Seeds (grow into new plants).

Plants are classified by size: Trees (tall, woody trunk: mango, banyan, neem), Shrubs (medium, woody stem: rose, jasmine, hibiscus), Herbs (small, soft stem: tulsi, mint, coriander), Creepers (grow along ground: pumpkin, watermelon), Climbers (grow upward using support: money plant, grape).

Plants give us: Food (wheat, rice, vegetables, fruits), Oxygen (all green plants release oxygen), Wood (for furniture and fuel), Medicine (neem, tulsi, aloe vera), Shade and beauty. Without plants, no life on Earth is possible. Always plant trees and protect existing ones.
