Hi Murray:
Yes, I think so - I didn't go, my wife took these for me because she thought I might be interested in them.

Thanks for sharing those DD, very interesting stuff... Though id does look a little 'clinical' in some of those shots.... Wierd seeing plants growing out of vast expanses of plastic.

What kind of delivery system on the 'hanging in air' plants.

I'm assuming they wick to avoid spillage, how?

AA the ones i've seen hanging like that are on a conveyor that goes through a spray booth.

I think the tomato pics are actually red variety of passion fruit maybe?

Gee Steve, you have just shattered my view of heaven, laying about under a canopy of rich red tomatos with endless supply of SAO Biscuits and several fair maidens to attend me with drinks....
They are passion fruit !!! I would like to know what variety they are, I have never seen a red passion fruit. Someone may know.
