Plant Care & Growing Tips

Caring for your terrarium & fairy garden plants is generally straightforward, especially within the controlled environment of a terrarium. For optimal health and longevity, understanding their basic needs is crucial. Most terrarium plants thrive in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, especially in closed terrariums, as it can cause the internal temperature to rise rapidly and scorch the delicate foliage. A north or east-facing window is often ideal, or a spot several feet away from a south or west-facing window. If your terrarium shows excessive condensation, it may be receiving too much light or has too much moisture, indicating a need for adjustment.

Watering frequency is significantly reduced in closed terrariums because the moisture recycles within the system. You might only need to water every few weeks or even months. Observe the soil and plants: if the soil looks dry or the plants show signs of wilting, it’s time to add a small amount of distilled or filtered water. For open terrariums, watering will be more frequent, typically when the top inch of soil feels dry. Always use well-draining soil specifically formulated for houseplants or terrariums to prevent root rot. A layer of charcoal and gravel at the bottom of your terrarium can also aid in drainage and absorb impurities. These indoor terrarium plants appreciate consistent, mild temperatures, generally between 65-75°F (18-24°C), and should be protected from extreme temperature fluctuations.

Fertilization is rarely necessary for mini terrarium plants, as nutrient demands are low in these contained environments. If you choose to fertilize, use a highly diluted liquid houseplant fertilizer once or twice a year during the growing season. Pruning is essential for maintaining the desired size and shape of your plants. Trim back any overgrown foliage to encourage bushier growth and prevent plants from touching the sides of the terrarium, which can lead to fungal issues. Regularly inspect your live terrarium assortment for any signs of pests or disease, though these are less common in terrariums due to the controlled environment and the fact that our plants are grown without dangerous insecticides.
