Summary

Pathe synopsis: A south London man has bought a large stock of second-hand glass carboys and introduced a touch of tropical greenery to many living-rooms. He uses a teaspoon tied to a long stick to reach down into the narrow-necked bottles and arrange the plants which, despite their liking for a humid climate, thrive in these draught-free indoor gardens.
