If you can perfect the technique of growing plants upside down then
I'm sure it will find numerous other applications. |

I've often thought that ceilings tend to be desolate wastelands. A few
inverted houseplants would spruce them up nicely, I imagine. |

Does it smell of napalm in the morning ... ? |

Nothing else in the world smells like that ... |

I was thinking this might be a candle which is upside-
down, so as to trap the aroma of bayberry beneath
it. An opaque container over the upside-down candle
could also prevent the light from the candle from
being seen. |

It's been perfected. Plants grow toward light. Control the light source and you control whether they grow up or down. |

You can make them grow in curlicues if you want. Check out a site called arborsmith for some examples. |
