A plant vending machine has been installed in a shopping mall in Bangkok, Thailand.
The unusual machine sells different house and garden plants from the Central World centre.
Shoppers choose the plant they want - from ferns and cactus to orchards and roses. The plants range in price from 100 baht (3USD) to 500 baht (16USD).
They then enter the details on a digital display before making payment with with cash of by scanning their bank’s QR code.
Payment releases the door to the plant and the shopper can take it home with them.
The company behind the plant vending machine said it has ‘‘the goal of getting people to plant trees, by making it easy and convenient to plant trees’’.
