Incidentally, the tree still lives well in a sealed glass bottle for 45 years, even without watering
David Latimer has seeded a plant in a large glass vase with some soil and water. He did not expect that the sprouted trees were still fresh despite not being able to visit the country since 1972.

That was done by David Latimer on a Sunday in 1960, he gave the seeds of a vegetable plant with little soil and water to the glass jar. Then he closed the bottle and put it in a sunny corner.
The last time, Latimer opened the lid for watering 45 years ago. During the decades of dry abandonment, the male plants in closed containers still live and develop well due to photosynthesis.
Latimer puts trees in the windows to let the sunlight shine. He even carefully rotated the jar regularly so that all the plants in the jar were always sunny.
Photosynthesis is the process of acquiring solar energy with plants. Thanks to this process, plants in the jar can produce oxygen and create moisture in the air. After that, moisture condensates into water supplied to the plant. At the same time, the leaves fall down, decomposing to become fertilizer for plants to grow.
The vegan plants that grow well in closed containers even without watering for more than 40 years are a good example of the ability of plants to nurture themselves to perfectly develop and maintain their life cycle.
David Latimer 's special tree vase is being placed at his door in Cranleigh, Surrey, UK, for 27 years, since he and his wife moved there.
David Latimer wants to see how long the plants can live.
