Cool project for the kids.
A week and a half ago we trimmed a few frozen braches from an apple tree. The kids placed them in a mason jar full of warm water and put them in a sunny window. Within a few days the buds swelled and the leaves appeared. Now the flowers appear to be developing. The kids are absolutely enthralled watching the spring growth while its still snowy and in the single digits here.
