Exotic plants flourish inside the warmth of Eden Project | This is Cornwall: "While gardens across the Westcountry are slowly shivering into life, exotic plants are flourishing inside Eden's rainforest biome.

One of the most spectacular floral displays is being provided by the rare jade vine, which can grow up to 100m in length in its native home of the Philippines.
