Reproducing lattice dendrogram graph with ggplot2

Question

Is this possible to reproduce this lattice plot with ggplot2?

library(latticeExtra)
data(mtcars)
x  <- t(as.matrix(scale(mtcars)))
dd.row <- as.dendrog         


        

Answer 1

Doubtful. I do not see any functions in the Index for ggplot2 that would suggest support for dendrograms, and when this blogger put together a set of translations of the illustrations in Sarkar's Lattice book, he was unable to get a ggplot dendrogram legend:
