Summerâs almost here â and while we love the long, warm days, your terrarium might need a little extra care to stay lush and happy during the hotter months.
Here are a few simple tips to keep your miniature garden thriving:
đ Keep it cool:
Avoid placing your terrarium in direct sunlight. Glass can magnify heat and quickly overheat your plants â bright, indirect light is perfect.
đ§Â Watch the moisture:
With warmer weather, moisture can evaporate faster. Check your terrariumâs condensation levels â a light mist every week or two is often enough, but always let it dry a little between waterings. Just keep an eye on the moss, discolouration or looking dry. As that is often the first sign a Terrarium is getting dry.
đżÂ Air it out:
If your terrarium has a lid, open it up every now and then to let in some fresh air and prevent mould.
â¨Â Trim and tidy:
Summer growth can be fast! Give your plants a light trim to keep them looking neat and healthy.
Your terrarium should look fresh and vibrant all season long â and if it ever starts looking a little tired, a quick refresh can bring it right back to life.
Happy summer growing,
