Tiny little plant keychains
Behold the latest fad from Japan, tiny little plants rendered into keychains: 
Who knew that there would be a demand for keychains made from eensy-weensy little plants? Do you have to water this plant? Is it really ultra bonsai? What will the Japanese do when they crank up the genetic engineering? Will they breed tiny little parakeets to live in little cages that you can wear as a pendant? And who, pray tell, will be the first American celebrity to popularize potted plant keychains? GorillaMask thinks it will be Paris Hilton.

Today's trinket was yesterday's planet-changing invention: the Wardian Case. From PlantExplorers.com:
Growing plants, and even shipping plants, under glass was not new, but Ward's observation of the tightly sealed environment, kept independent from surrounding atmospheric conditions, was the breakthrough that changed forever the art and science of plant exploration.The Wardian AgeSissy
