Knowledge

"What's the matter, darling?"

"It's ruined!!"

"Ruined, you say? Let me see."

"Look, the leaves are all yellowing! I've been checking the soil and watering and feeding it just like you showed me! I don't understand! What did I do wrong?"

"Oh sweet boy, you haven't done anything wrong."

"Then why does it look like that??"

"This is just part of its lifecycle. The leaves are sending all of their nutrients to the roots to store them for the winter."

"Like a nutkin storing seeds?"

"Exactly like that. When spring comes, it will release all of that energy back into the stalks to produce a big beautiful flower, and that flower will attract pollinators, which help the plant reproduce. Then, after a few weeks, the flower will wilt, and the plant will spend the summer soaking up all the sunlight and water and food that we give it so it can grow big and strong until the cycle begins again."

"So it isn't dying?"

"No, just getting ready for a nice long nap."

"Really? I didn't know plants could take naps... What else can they do?"

"Far more than we have time to learn today. Come on, let's get washed up for lunch. These plants aren't the only ones who need to food and rest to grow…”
