Dissecting Lima Beans



We soaked Lima beans over night and were amazed at how much they expanded with water.

The seeds were very soft and easy to break apart in order to see the parts of the seed.


The roots of the baby plant.

The food that will nourish the plant.

Dissecting soaked Lima beans. "They are fragile!"

The seed coat protects the seed.






A seed is a promise!
