What in the heck is a Magic Garden? *is confused*

Umm, Errrr...

A little kit that grows all strange and crazy coloured crystals when you add a secret magic potion. It is also something that I really should be too old to be playing with!

You know, my degree in chemistry should enable me to explain what is going on here...

Stupid waste of time! 4 years of my life, and all I got was a lousy bit of paper!

Well, at least that piece of paper sounds impressive.
That means you could actually make your own magic garden and I bet it would whip the arse of this thing.
Me, I just sit here muttering 'Oooohhh, pretty colours', whilst wondering how much of the stuff I have filled my lungs with when asleep.

On further reflection, I guess it is quite impressive :)
I have an idea of what I should put into a crystal garden, but I'm not sure it could out-do the one my father had... I think there is a photo somewhere in one of the albums.
Hmm, I'll have to dig it out now!

I love these things! I had a little Magic Christmas Tree when I was younger*. It was small and cheap and flimsy and be-yoo-tee-ful.

Is there any water left in the bottom? You could try adding a little more and the crystals might grow some more. Or, it could all collapse in a soggy mess.

(* By younger, I mean last year)

I just tried adding water and with my finely tuned hand eye coordination....

Pfooompf!

I have now destroyed the whole thing and it appears to be raining pink crystal dust all over my bedroom.

Hours of fun and enjoyment if you have the patience - which I lack completely.

I didn't think they still made those things. It's a bummer that it didn't fully grow, but at least you got big pink trees.

I had big pink trees - now all I have is dust.

Note to self for next time - create magic wonders such as this in a room where they can be easily disposed of without giving myself a possible respiratory disorder.
