and as it was time for 'something different', and a rearrange session on my book shelf,
I created this DIY Bottle terrarium...
You will need a large clean bottle or container made from clear glass
This plant is a miniature anthurium.
Time to carefully break up the plant, as this is too big.
I actually got six plants from this one, and used three pieces for in the terrarium.
Firstly put a layer of bark in the bottom of the bottle, then add a layer of potting mix.
Use the stick to make a hole in the middle. Place your plant here.
Now add a layer of white stones or gravel.
Finally add your interest piece.
Finished and in place on the shelf...
The DIY Terrarium most certainly adds interest to the shelf display.
