Lol Richard, you positioned that one well!! 
I agree, I think they're quite hideous!

Tending more towards cacti
, particularly Gymnocalyciums, Rebutias, Sulcorebutias, Echinopses, Thelos, Feros and Mamms (and anything else I like the look of!) all in an 8 x 6 polycarb greenhouse and a few windowsills!

Re: Kew Gardens visit
Richard thats actually quite a good composition with the pushchair mirroring the form of the sculpture. As for the sculptures themselves I can take em or leave em. Prefer the plants on show;)
You can take the boy out of the greenhouse, but you can't take the greenhouse out of the boy!

Re: Kew Gardens visit
What's the name of the plant in the very first picture that lookslike little shot glasses all stacked inside each other - presumably each one is a year's growth.
Not quite so new to cacti now - greenhouse up and running - a cactoholic is born!! Visits welcome - just get in touch.

The geese and the tower top make a nice line through the photo.
I hadn't spotted the leak!
