A Prehistoric evergreen that keeps coming back to life! This one-of-a-kind marvel has lived on the Earth for over 290 million years and has the ability to "come back to life" over and over again for hundreds of years! Place this seemingly dead ball of foliage in water and within hours it transforms into a vibrant green evergreen! Let it dry out and it will return to the dried state it ships in. This fantastic specimen can hibernate for up to fifty years and will spring to life every time it is given water.
Dinosaur Plant Kit Includes:
Display Bowl
Bag New Mexico lava Rock

Rating: 
My 3 year old is very interested in dinosaurs and plants, so I thought this would be perfect. He was excited to see the plant open up after he put it in water, and it's great that it happens so quickly. However, the plant is not nearly as big as in the picture - it only became about half the size of the bowl, and it didn't hold his interest after the first day. We will probably put it away for a while and see if he is more interested later.

My 5 year old daughter used it on her first science project in school. It helped her understand about the life cycles of plants. Great product.

My rating of Dinosaur Plant
Posted 1/16/2008 by Mary Arnold
Rating:
An awesome science activity. The plant woke up and responded to the water. A week later it is nice, lush and green. It will be fun to let it rest and document the changes. I highly recommend this plant for a pre school setting, especially where you don't have enough sunlight for regular plants.

Dinosaur Plant

Rating: 
The fern is not as large as it appears in the picture, or as full. It did open as described when arranged in its little plastic bowl with a few lava pebbles and water was added. It's cool that you don't have to wait weeks or months for the thing to grow, but it won't hold a young ones attention for long. On the flip side, you can just let it dry up again and bring it back out at a later time.

Interesting product. Fun to watch it come back to life. Was disappointed at the final size of mine though. All the pictures I saw, show it becoming very full. Mine ended up shaped kind of like a bowl.
