Terrariums At Its Best

Terrariums as we can remember are Science projects in which we create a small Eco-system inside a glass container to keep and observe living plants and animals. Nowadays, it is famously known to accentuate ornamental features of  indoor and outdoor designs. It adds highlight to any architectural creation because of it's unique and one of a kind structure and component. Not everyone is familiar with terrariums so this can be a superb gift plant idea to someone who appreciates green and home accents.


The process of preparing the plants in the terrarium is the same in creating a miniature garden, the difference is the clear decorative glass container so you can see the plants inside. You need to choose plants that doesn't grow bigger than its container so it can occupy enough space inside. Many online shops offer ready to ship terrariums with beautiful plant arrangements so if you're planning to give someone this special gift, the option is up to your fingertips.


These gifts are nice to decorate in any parts of the house. We can plant easy to grow succulents and cactus, mosses, small plants and flowers like pansies or orchids. There are many kinds of terrarium to choose from. Hanging terrariums are those you hang in the windows, porches, doors and garden. Another type are wall terrariums which are placed on walls. There are also kinds of terrariums that can be placed on tabletops as centerpieces like the jar and tabletop terrarium. The most expensive ones are plant stands which can be a nice gift for weddings, anniversaries and housewarmings. You can also make your own gift by buying pretty glass containers in the market and plant it with your favorite plants. You can show creativity by adding fancy figurines to your small garden.
