Lesson 37 - Why do leaves grow bigger when climbing?

Cheryl has a vine plant that has an interesting pattern of leaf size: when the vine grows horizontally, the leaves are relatively small, but when the vine grows vertically, the leaves are significantly bigger. In order to understand why, Cheryl and Ryan learn about what plants "know," how they know what they know, and even why some plants throw shade. It's never too late to learn about the world around you.
