Summary

Pathe synopsis: At Notting Hill Gate, London, we meet a young Australian, Harry Nairn, who creates from odd pieces of material and the simplest of tools, artificial flowers that are almost perfect reproductions of their living counterparts. Some he copies from their natural state, some from pictures or paintings, while others are merely the product of his imagination.
