Pea Plant Stages

A pea plant begins as a seed in the soil. It grows into a seedling, then a flowering plant, and finally a pod with new seeds.

In the picture

  1. A pale seed in dark soil: the resting seed that can start a new plant.
  2. A green seedling with two leaves: the young plant growing upward from the soil.
  3. A bee on a white flower: the bee carries pollen from flower to flower.
  4. An open green pod with round peas: the fruit holds seeds for new plants.

Examples

  • A bean seed sprouting in a wet paper towel.
  • A bee visiting flowers in a garden.
