After reading the text and looking at the photograph, Kevin can form the idea that the seeds of this hibiscus have not been released yet. The text mentions that the seeds are contained in capsules in the center of the flower and are released when the flower is fully grown and the capsules split open. This implies that if he sees a hibiscus flower that looks healthy and intact, the seeds might still be inside the capsules.
Kevin is reading about flowers for his science fair project.
A close up of a hibiscus flower.
Hibiscus are beautiful flowers with colorful petals that are popular in gardens and used to attract butterflies. In many countries, the petals are boiled to make a tangy and flavorful tea. The hibiscus seeds are contained in tall, dry capsules found in the center of the flower. They are released when the flower is fully grown and the capsules split open.
