SP PIP 0r Trees drink through straws Trees drink up water much like you do when you drink through a straw. Only trees don't have a mouth. Instead, water that escapes from the tree's buds creates suction - like your mouth on a straw which pulls the water up the tree and through straw-like tubes. Discover for yourself how a tree drinks. Place a piece of celery into a glass of coloured water. Check the bottom of the celery after a few hours. You will see the coloured tubes that the water moved through.
