Before and after ...

My niece gave me a Magic Growing Jungle for Christmas - which perhaps indicates how childish she thinks I am ;-)  But I love these things, where crystals grow on the trees, etc - and it does say 8+ years on the box, so I do actually qualify ;-)

This is the 'before' shot - you can just see the liquid being soaked up by the trees.  Next blip will be once it has fully 'grown' - and then, of course, you can't move it without it collapsing all over your lounge carpet!
