Amazing Dinosaur Plant is one of the longest-living plants in world! This plant existed when first dinosaurs emerged. At that time, this plant would grow to over 120 feet taller than even a Tyrannosaurus Rex!
When ice age came, Dinosaur Plant had to mutate and get really small. In order to survive, it learned how to blow onto dry land and sleep, waiting for water. Usually plant drifted around until it stumbled into a puddle. Then plant “drank” greedily and went back sleep until it found next puddle.
The Dinosaur Plant is very easy to care for. All it needs is a little water and some occasional sleep. Simply place plant in its bowl with New Mexico lava rock (included), pour some water on plant and it will spring to life within one day! If you let Dinosaur Plant dry out, it will shrink back to its sleeping state. It can sleep for up to fifty years and will still rise when you place it in water! A fun project for entire family to enjoy!
The Amazing Dinosaur Plant includes a live plant, bag of genuine volcanic lava rock, display bowl and instructions. Appropriate for kids of age 4+ and its original price is $8.95 at Scientifics Online.
