Like the title states, this was made by my mum in 2005 and the cork has never been lifted. It appears to be a perfectly balanced eco system which is thriving. I believe the bottle is an old chemical storage bottle, approx 50-60 years old from my research. No idea what plants are in it but there are several different types. Thought someone on here might find this interesting.

    I think the world record is 40 years or something

    Cool! Looks like the flask to a Rotary Evaporator.

    I dream of creating something this long lasting that is completely sealed. Looks like there might be some creeping fig, and maybe some sphagnum.

    So neat!! Can you share more pics, or does it look uniform from all directions?
