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 should I position my new terrarium for optimal plant health?
- Place your terrarium in a warm area with bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sunlight can overheat the terrarium and harm the plants, while low light may hinder their growth.
- Can the terrarium be opened for maintenance or adding new plants?
- Yes, you can open the terrarium to clean it or add new small plants. Ensure any new additions are suitable for high humidity environments and do not overcrowd the space, allowing for adequate air circulation.
- What makes the Bio-active terrarium at Highland Moss sustainable?
- The inclusion of springtails makes our terrariums self-cleaning and sustainable, as they break down dead plant material and prevent mould, reducing the need for frequent maintenance and chemical use.
☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
Your Handmade Bio-Active Terrarium thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent scorching the plants and moss inside. A spot receiving filtered sunlight such as near a north-facing window is ideal.
💧 Water
💧💧▫️ (Medium)
Keep the soil lightly moist but not soggy. Water sparingly, as the closed environment of a terrarium generally keeps humidity high. Check the moisture level every few weeks and add a small amount of water if the soil feels dry.
🌡️ Temperature
🌡️🌡️🌡️ (Warm)
Maintain a warm environment for your terrarium, ideally between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid placing it near draughty areas or direct heat sources like radiators.
💦 Humidity
💦💦💦 (High)
High humidity is crucial for the health of terrarium plants and moss. The enclosed nature of a terrarium usually helps in maintaining a humid atmosphere. Ensure the container shows signs of internal condensation but is not overly wet.
🪴 Repotting
No need to repot as the bio-active system maintains itself! The springtails in the terrarium help break down dead plant matter, thus keeping the substrate healthy and balanced.
🐾 Pet Friendliness
This terrarium is safe and non-toxic to pets. Feel free to place it in accessible areas without worry about harm to your furry friends.
✅🪴 Recommended Locations at Home
Perfect on a desk, bookshelf, or coffee table where its intricate beauty can be appreciated up close. Ensure the location meets the light and temperature needs as outlined.
🌬️🪴 Air Purifying
While the main benefit of your terrarium is aesthetic and self-maintenance, it also contributes to a slight purification of the air around it.
✨ Other Plant Features
Enjoy the lush greenery and the self-sustaining ecosystem of your terrarium which brings a piece of Highland Moss directly into your home. It’s not just a plant; it’s a living piece of art!

Very happy with the product and the service, thanks 😊
Thank you so much for holding back the delivery due to it clashing with the funeral of my dear mother in law, it was truly appreciated. My wife was also taken aback by your thoughtfulness by including a lovely bouquet of dried flowers and card with kind words. The flowers will always remind us of Elaine and sit pride of place on the sideboard in our dining room. You are truthfully some of the very best people we have dealt with, online and on the phone.
Amazing, personalised customer service! Always very friendly, approachable and dedicated. Thank you!
