Plants for terrarium

Anastasia on May 10, 2015What I did was go to a larger nursery & ask. Don't go to Home Depot or Walmart. You need a knowledgeable person to help you.They will have suggestions and there are plants you would not think to put in a terrarium, but they have treated to keep them small. They were very helpful for my two terrariums. You also need to trim them occasionally to keep them small.Helpful Reply
