In 1960, David Latimer planted spiderwort Sprout inside a large glass bottle, added a quarter pint of water, and then sealed it shut. He opened bottle 12 years later in 1972 to add some water and then sealed it for good. The self contained ecosystem has flourished for more than 60 years.

I guarantee that if I were given ownership of this plant, without touching it at all- I would kill it within a month.
