Handmade Bio-active terrarium with a selection of lush plants and Highland Moss moss.
Our Bio-active terrarium is a house to springtails, super tiny white hexapods which live in soggy soil and feed on dead plant material and mould. Springtails are excellent for terrariums due to their amazing ability to self-regulate their population based on the space and food avability. You won’t be able to see them easily when working cleaning your terrarium.
Are you looking for something different? We offer custom-made mossarium and terrariums, perfect for a birthday or wedding gift instead of cut flowers. Contact us for more information.

How to look after a terrarium
Keep in a warm spot in bright indirect light and keep the soil slightly moist. Moss and terrarium plants thrive in high humidity!
- How often should I water my terrarium to maintain optimal growth?
- Keep the soil slightly moist and ensure high humidity within the terrarium for the best results. Typically, watering lightly every two weeks should suffice, but this can vary based on the dryness of the environment.
- Can I place the terrarium in direct sunlight?
- It’s best to place the terrarium in a warm spot with bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can cause excessive heat buildup inside the terrarium, which might harm the plants.
- What are the benefits of having springtails in the terrarium?
- Springtails play a crucial role in maintaining the terrarium’s health by decomposing dead plant material and preventing mould growth. They naturally regulate their population based on available space and food, providing a self-sustaining ecosystem.
☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
Your Handmade Bio-Active Terrarium thrives in bright, indirect light. Place it near a window where sunlight is filtered through a curtain or in a well-lit room to ensure it gets the light it needs without the risk of direct sun exposure, which can be too harsh for the delicate plants inside.
💧 Water
💧💧▫️ (Medium)
Keep the soil slightly moist, but be careful not to overwater. A good rule of thumb is to check the top inch of the soil; if it’s dry, it’s time to water. Due to the enclosed nature of a terrarium, water lightly and only when needed to maintain humidity without causing waterlogging.
🌡️ Temperature
🌡️🌡️🌡️ (Warm)
These terrarium plants prefer a warm environment. Aim to keep your terrarium in a spot that enjoys regular room temperatures between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid placing it near drafty windows or heat sources like radiators, as fluctuating temperatures can stress the plants.
💦 Humidity
💦💦💦 (High)
The ecosystem within your terrarium creates a naturally humid environment, perfect for your moss and terrarium plants. To maintain high humidity, ensure the container’s seal is effective and only open it to adjust conditions or for minimal maintenance.
🪴 Repotting (or substrate info for moss/creatures)
Your terrarium is a self-sustaining ecosystem that rarely needs repotting. The springtails inside help break down any waste and prevent mould, keeping the soil healthy. If you notice the plants outgrowing the space, you may consider trimming them back rather than repotting.
🐾 Pet Friendliness
This terrarium is safe for homes with pets. Ensure it is placed in a stable location where it can’t be knocked over by curious cats or dogs.
✅🪴 Recommended Locations at Home
Place your terrarium in a living room, study, or any room with sufficient indirect light. It’s also a beautiful, living addition to a bedroom, where it can add to a relaxing environment.
🌬️🪴 Air Purifying
While small in scale, the plants within your terrarium contribute to air purification, making it not just a decorative piece but a functional one that enhances your indoor air quality.
✨ Other Plant Features
Aside from its stunning visual appeal, your terrarium is a conversation starter. It’s a miniature world that invites closer inspection and can spark interest in botany and ecosystem dynamics.
