Solution
I visited a plant nursery and observed different types of plants. I classified them according to their size, type of stem and way of growing.
| Type of Plant | Examples | Main Features |
|---|---|---|
| Herbs | Mint, coriander, basil, spinach | They are small plants with soft and green stems. |
| Shrubs | Rose, hibiscus, jasmine, lantana | They are medium-sized plants with hard and woody stems and many branches. |
| Trees | Mango, neem, guava, coconut | They are tall and have a strong, thick and woody stem. |
| Climbers | Grapevine, money plant, pea, bean | They have weak stems and need support to grow upward. |
| Creepers | Pumpkin, watermelon, cucumber, sweet potato | They have weak stems and usually spread |
The plants in a nursery are of different types. Herbs are small, shrubs are medium-sized, trees are tall, climbers need support to grow upward, and creepers spread along the ground. Thus, plants can be classified according to their size, stem and manner of growth.
