How to create your Succulent Plant Terrarium

- Active Charcoal: Next up is the charcoal layer. This will protect your plants from mould.
- Soil: Add the soil and get ready to build your new terrarium!
- Plants: Now for the piece de resistance. Remove your plants from their growing pots and create little wells in the soil to finish off your miniature jungle.

The terrarium typically comes with the following plants
- Hydnophytum Papuanum
- Hylocereus Undatus
- Crassula Minor.
Glass and accessories
The glass jar is made of 100% recycled glass. You’ll also receive a cork lid, gravel, charcoal, and nutrient rich soil to create the perfect mini rainforest.

With Light: A little light with a switcher attached to the cork lid to illuminate your terrarium and add a touch of magic to your room at night.
No Light: If you prefer just the natural light, you have that option too!
Succulent Plant Terrarium DIY Kit Care Guide
Water
Check the soil before watering, if it feels very dry, it needs a little hydration. You will likely only need to water it every few weeks
Grooming
If the plants are growing tall, you can trim the leaves to keep their size. Remove any yellow and brown leaves to prevent diseases
Care
Because they are self-nourishing, they require little effort. Just take off the lid and air the terrarium once in a while for a minimum period of 24 hours to avoid mould growth and therefore health complications of your plants
Succulent Plant Terrarium DIY Kit General Information
Origin
English doctor and Botanist Nathaniel Bagshaw Ward was intrigued by insect behaviour. During one of his experiments, in 1842 he, by mistake, left a jar unsupervised. A fern spore grew, germinated into a plant and the first terrarium was born!
