Roses aren’t a plant that will be able to last forever in just a vase with water. Believe it or not, they actually do need nutrients daily and a good amount of sunlight to even last 10 days! Studies show that bleach and/or sugar can actually help cut flowers live for longer periods of time. The average lifespan of a cut rose is 4-12 days, which isn’t very long. An experiment will be conducted to prove the theory that bleach and/or sugar improves the lifespan of a cut rose. The most important…

“Murder!” Lady Macduff yelled furiously whilst navigating the long, dim hallway of her husband’s castle. The large window she passed exposed a huge cliff face, with the coast of Fife immediately below. The waves slammed heavily like cymbals on the rocks, whilst slithers of moonlight danced elegantly on the water. As she turned a corner Lady Macduff saw the deep red colour of her assailant’s cape, the threat of death once again appeared. “You cannot run forever Lady Macduff, God help you in your…
