Keywords: tree distribution, elevation, Rocky Mountains, undergrowth, temperature, water availability. Duration of Cut flowers: Bellis perennis, Rosa, Dianthus caryophyllus J. Simons, 380N 1020E Apt 325 Provo, UT 84606, Email: Abstract: I tested flowers to see which Bellis perennis, Rosa, Dianthus caryophyllus would have a longer vase life. The variables I observed were wilting and browning of the petals. They were observed for a total of 2 weeks, during which time I analyzed daily. Once all of the results were taken, I concluded that the catyophyllus (carnation) lasted longest when observing both the wilting and browning of the flower petals. Keywords: Flower, Rose, daisy, carnation, time, wilting The effect that the pH of soil has on the types of plants that grow in the different pH levels in the Provo area: Provo, Utah, USA Katie M. Sirstins, 12 Bowen Hall, Provo, Utah 84604: Email: crazykatie2010@comcast.net Abstract This experiment tested to see if pH affects the types of plants that grow in different pH levels. Three different plants were selected and soil was taken from the base of these plants. To find the pH of the soil, a sample of each soil was mixed with distilled water and pH strips were dipped into the supernatant (the liquid above the settled soil) of this mixture. The results showed that different plants do indeed require different pH levels in order to have their optimum living conditions met. These results are compatible with the experiments done by other researchers and scientists. Keywords: pH, soil, plants, alkaline
