Every Terrarium is carefully crafted based on years of experience, to make sure you’re happy. every time.
A terrarium is a glass container, typically with plants inside, that creates a miniature ecosystem. It can be an open or closed environment, designed to mimic natural conditions for plants, making it easy to grow indoor plants in a self-sustaining way.
Caring for a terrarium is relatively simple! Keep it in a spot with indirect sunlight, avoid overwatering, and monitor the humidity level. Closed terrariums need less watering as the moisture circulates inside the glass. For open terrariums, water as needed, typically every two weeks, depending on the plants inside.
Yes, the silicone hinge is designed for durability and should last a long time with proper care. However, like any material, it can be susceptible to damage if mishandled. If the hinge breaks due to a manufacturing defect, we will gladly replace it for you.
Not all plants are suitable for terrariums. For closed terrariums, choose plants that thrive in high humidity, such as ferns, moss, and air plants. For open terrariums, drought-tolerant plants like succulents and cacti are ideal. Always consider the light and moisture needs of the plants before adding them to your terrarium.
To clean your terrarium, gently wipe the glass with a soft cloth or paper towel to remove any dust or smudges. Be careful not to disturb the plants. If you need to remove debris, use a small brush or a pair of tweezers. Avoid using harsh chemicals; a simple mixture of water and mild soap should do the trick for stubborn spots.
With the right care, a terrarium can last for many years. The plants inside will continue to grow and thrive, and the glass container can remain in excellent condition if cleaned and handled properly. However, the plants may need occasional pruning or replanting as they outgrow the space.
