Those little ornamental trees just got far more impressive. Now being able to levitate, the decorative plants have been made to float seemingly of their own accord by tech company Air Bonsai.

Thanks to two magnets installed in both the ‘energy base’ and the tree itself (called a ‘little star’), your bonsai tree can now soothingly levitate and rotate.

Hovering two centimetres above the base, the plant still needs to be watered but otherwise appears to require very little attention, just like any other bonsai.

The company’s Kickstarter page set a goal of $80,000, yet at time of writing, the running total currently stands at $316,818 pledged.

The plants will not be sold cheaply however, with it taking a pledge of $200 (£140) to receive a basic set.

The delivery date for these packages is estimated at August this year, with shipping only available for certain countries. — The Independent
