Green, easy to care for and simply beautiful: A DIY fern terrarium

Components:

On the island of Sri Lanka, the alternation between the dry season and the rainy monsoon has led to the development of lush vegetation. Ferns and polyscias play an important role in this. They are adapted to high humidity and heat and therefore cope well with terrarium conditions.

• 1 Polyscias balfouriana (pot diameter 6 cm)
• 1 small fern (pot diameter 6 cm)
• 400 ml pozzolan
• 400 ml peat soil
• 2 handfuls of fine dark grey gravel
• 1 handful of medium-sized light grey gravel
• 1 handful of medium-sized white gravel
• 1 handful of grey gravel
• 2 large pieces of bark
• 3 cushions of forest moss
• 1 cup mineral or filtered water (about 70 ml)
