After leaving them overnight we woke to find them beautifully coloured after they 'drank' the water from the vases. They look so pretty in our window and the experiment led to a great conversation with the children about how flowers get nourishment, specifically water, in order to grow in the garden. This experiment would be fun to do with any colour combinations!
