Link of the Day

A sealed garden that was only opened once in over 50 years

David Latimer planted a seed in a bottle in 1960, then sealed it up. Nearly sixty years later, the bottled garden is thriving beautifully. Says Latimer:

This is possible because the garden makes its own ecosystem through the magic of the sun (photosynthesis) that is self-sufficient.

“It’s 6ft from a window so gets a bit of sunlight. It grows towards the light so it gets turned round every so often so it grows evenly. Otherwise, it’s the definition of low-maintenance. I’ve never pruned it, it just seems to have grown to the limits of the bottle.”
