Not exactly farming and not in Thailand but well worth a look. (don't know where else to put it)

Montreal Mosaiculture - BEAUTIFUL AND UNUSUAL


Once every three years, there is an international competition in
horticultural sculpture, called "mosaiculture," in a major city in the
world. This year it is Montreal.

This is not topiary but rather creating sculptures out of living plants. The greatest
horticulturalists in the world, from 20 different countries, submitted
plans a year in advance.

Steel armatures were then created to support
the works (some 40 feet high); they were then wrapped in steel mesh and
filled with dirt and moss and watering hoses.

Then they ordered 3 million plants of different shades of green and brown and tan, and these
were grown in greenhouses all over Quebec.

In late May, these horticulturalists came to Montreal and planted all of their plants in
the forms at the Montreal Botanic Gardens, and they have been standing
for three months now.

There were 50 major sculptures along a path two
miles long. They were incredible. If you would like to visit a few and
walk along the path with me, click on

It's an incredible show! .

... the time and effort that goes into making displays like that is hard to imagine... It's no wonder they only do it every three years! thumbsup.gif

Beautiful sculpture but like bonsai and other stuff I have trouble with training living plants. Weird I know.
