Deodar Cedar

400x drawings/photographs

1. We gathered our pollen samples and placed small amounts onto a slide.

2. On the slide we added one drop of 0.1% Bonicacid and 30% Socrose to the pollen's.

3. We did this to see if we could trick the pollen into making pollen tubes. 

4. We then placed the samples under the light microscope and located the pollen.

5. We took pictures with our phones (iPhones) of the two samples: Christmas Cactus and Poinsettia                                   

and drew the Deodar Cedar.
