An entire Swiss chard plant in water

This was one of the crazier shots I've done. And, guess what? It was an incredible pain to set up!

1. Pulling the Swiss chard plant from the ground: easy
2. Filling a glass with water: easy
3. Suspending the plant in the water: WHAT??

I tried dental floss, tape, nothing, and eventually I think just swore at it enough that it decided to stay for a moment.

And, I like it. But after spending something like 2-3 hours on it, decided I'd had enough with that type of work.
