One of the secrets to a good terrarium is getting it to sustain itself. If you get things right it can go a long time with minimal care or possibly with no care! This is a picture of a terrarium submitted by Badia and my thanks to her for sending the pic.
It is a terrarium that was put aside and forgotten about for two years. The terrific thing is how healthy and vibrant it is! This is one of the great things about terrariums! Once they are done they can be very little maintenance.
So, If you would really like to make a terrarium but are unsure as to whether or not you want to commit to caring for it over the long term you might want to consider the fact that it might need no care at all! |
