IMPORTANT
Please always make sure to use a good quality, suitable growing medium in your terrarium as it plays a crucial role in the overall health and growth of plants. Poor soil or not suitable for terrarium soil can lead to poor drainage, waterlogging, and poor nutrient uptake and result in weak & unhealthy ecosystems. Good quality soil ensures that your plants and moss have the proper environment to thrive, promoting healthy growth and long-lasting beauty in your terrariums.
700g fill in a 1.8-litre container. Suitable for large terrariums (for example 45cm height & 23cm base).
Please note that in an effort to minimize packaging and waste in our shop, we may pack larger quantities of our products including soil, into larger bags. For example, if you order 2 bags of 300g, you may receive one bag with 600g of the product. This is to reduce the amount of packaging and waste and be more eco-friendly. If you have any concerns or special requests regarding the packaging of your order, please contact us before placing your order. We are committed to being environmentally responsible and appreciate your understanding.

We’re a small family business with a big love for plants.
From our base in Aberdeen, we pack every order with care and love. Our small size means we can be flexible with special requests, and we’re always happy to help. We reuse packaging, craft our own eco-friendly products, and offer friendly advice whenever you need it.
Fantastic service as always from Pam, Craig and the Team! Added bonus to get to meet Angus the new puppy!
Great website and very communicative with delivery updates. Minor issue with the interface for the aroid plants bundle: I was unable to select both the base and extension pole, so had to add the latter separately.
Really lovely selection of plants photographed beautifully. I had a question before placing my order and used the online contact form. Craig couldn’t have been more helpful with a super quick response which resolved my query completely. My order was delivered on time and the plants and accessories were wrapped so beautifully with thoughtful little extras which made opening everything really special. I even got a ‘wee gift’ with my order and although I was aware from the website that one would be included with my order, it was just another example of a company who really wants to connect with the customers, even though there must be a financial commitment. I found the website full of useful articles and being able to access specific care guides for my purchases has been extremely useful.
The plants are well taken care of and from the few times I’ve bought from them never had any issues with the plants. 10/10 care would definitely recommend buying either only or in person.
