	C60 in the Temperate Palm House I chose C60 to represent carbon - the atom around which life on earth is based - and because it looks fab.  The model is nearly 2.5m in diameter, and it was fun getting it in without crushing the plants.
DNA in the Temperate Palm house If you hold the Guinness World Record for the largest model of DNA in the world then it is almost compulsory to take a DNA model to every exhibition you do.  This contains 100 base pairs - diddly squat.  Wait until you see the 300 base pair model that will hang from the roof of Norwich Cathedral at the BA festival in September 2006!
	Oranges and Lemons or R and S limonene together with a citric acid.  The lemon bush at the front was in bloom.
The Photosynthesis Mural with Chlorophyll in the middle (glucose and oxygens obscured) - what a whopper!
	Primordial soup in Ferns and Fossils
Sucrose in the pond with the sugar cane in Plants and People
	A Yam seen through part of the diosgenin molecule
Salt - what was that doing there?  Representing all the other atoms that didn't make it into the exhibition

Stropanthin the heart rate slowing drug .   Sadly the strophanthus bush was just behind the photographer (me)	Vinblastine.  The madagascan periwinkle is just at the bottom of the picture	The wax esters from jojoba that saved the whale
Polymers - aren't they fab?  This is cellulose going up an arial root	This is jasmone and methyl jasmonate the scent of the jasmine flower.  Sadly there was no scent at the time, the flowers turned over just before I arrived	Tamiflu with the star anise on the LHS.  An amazing red / purple star-shaped flower
