          Fantastic. I've never seen anything like that before. I'm guessing all the plants are real?

          How did you do it? What plants did you use?

          Hi Clueless , they are not mine , I`ve seen one of them time ago in Italy and find out that actually they are very popular in USA ....they are making competition and so on .
          I was just wonder if anyone in England has one! , yes the plants are all real , always wanted to start one but never had time. that would be a perfect winter hobby.

          When I was little, seemingly forever ago, at school everyone in our class once made a garden in a bottle. I think the teacher thought it would make a change from growing cress in an egg shell. I remember I kept mine in my bedroom and was very proud of it. I followed the care instructions meticulously and didn't neglect it (which lets face it, is quite unusual for a kid). That was a very long time ago, and I can't for the life of me remember any more detail other than that there was some very small flowers in the bottle.

          As this forum is dedicated to containers Gardening I just had the idea of publish the picture just to give peoples ideas and then containers are more then just a plastic pot....If you go on google pictures you will find lots of ideas , the plants are really easy to find most of it are small sedums , irish moss or corsican mint , use a bonsai as main tree and so on........
          I will start one up in spring .
