Terrarium Design

Terrarium is a fun scene where you can put moss, succulents, and other plants, as well as various fences, gravel, cute cartoon characters, and animals into a bottle. Putting a bottle on the desk at home and office, looking up and glimpsing the green when you are tired, it is as if you have fallen into a simple and pure fairy tale world, escaping from the reinforced concrete of the city, escaping from the complexity, hustle and bustle, and the heart seems to become comfortable and slow down.

Prepare the base material: Spread a layer of crushed stone or charcoal on the bottom of the container to increase drainage.

b.  Soil layer: Activated carbon, nutrient soil and other materials can be used to meet the needs of plant root growth

c.  Choose plants: according to the theme and style of the micro-landscape, choose suitable plants, such as succulents, mosses, small ferns, etc.

 d.  Arrange the Terrarium: Arrange the plants, soil, ornaments and other elements according to your own creativity to create a unique landscape.

 e.  Maintenance management: Terrarium need proper light, moisture and ventilation, and attention should be paid to regular watering, fertilization and cleaning.  

Other containers, such as plastic pots, can also be used for the "micro-landscape", but regardless of the type of vessel, the configuration of the soil is key to creating the   "micro-landscape", and each layer needs to be compacted and moistened (as long as the bottom substrate is soaked and no excess water escapes). After fixing the soil layer as a planting medium, you can landscape on it to make a creative and personalized micro-landscape ecological bottle.

 Terrarium is a miniature fusion of nature and art, which condenses ecology and aesthetics in every square inch through creative design and has both ornamental value and emotional healing effect.
