Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best plants to use in a terrarium?

The best plants for closed terrariums include ferns, Fittonia, Begonia, Pilea, and Peperomia. These plants thrive in high-humidity environments and are well-suited for enclosed spaces.

Which types of plants are suitable for a terrarium?

Terrariums are ideal for humidity-loving, compact, and slow-growing plants that thrive in indirect light and moist conditions.

Why should I avoid using succulents or cacti in a terrarium?

Succulents and cacti prefer dry, well-draining environments and are not suitable for closed terrariums. The high humidity can cause root rot.

How do I manage overgrown terrarium plants?

Trim back plants to maintain space inside the terrarium. You can propagate cuttings within the same terrarium or plant them separately.

Can I divide terrarium plants to create more?

Yes! Many terrarium plants, such as ferns, Fittonia, Begonia, Pilea, and Peperomia, can be split and propagated for multiple projects.

How do you care for plants in a terrarium?

Provide indirect light, maintain humidity by misting when needed, and avoid overwatering. Use well-draining soil and remove dead leaves to prevent mould.

What are the best containers for making a terrarium?

Glass jars, bowls, and containers with lids help retain moisture for closed terrariums, while open containers suit plants that prefer drier conditions.

How often should terrarium plants be watered?

Closed terrariums require less frequent watering—check soil moisture and only water when it begins to dry out.

Can I use artificial lighting for my terrarium?

Yes! LED grow lights can be used, especially in rooms with low natural light. Choose a light that mimics natural conditions.

What type of soil is best for terrariums?

A well-draining mix is essential. We recommend using Highland Moss Premium Terrarium Soil, available on our website, to support healthy plant growth.

Do terrarium plants need fertiliser?

Minimal fertiliser is needed. If you fertilise, use a diluted, balanced liquid fertiliser during the growing season.

How can I prevent mould and pests in my terrarium?

Avoid overwatering
Allow for air circulation by occasionally opening the lid
Introduce springtails & isopods to keep the terrarium bio-active
Remove dead plant matter regularly
Use natural insecticides if needed

What are common problems with terrarium plants and how to solve them?

Yellowing leaves – Too much moisture or poor drainage. Adjust watering.
Mould – Improve airflow, add activated charcoal, or introduce springtails.
Overgrowth – Regular trimming helps maintain a balanced ecosystem.
Pests – Use natural treatments like neem oil or introduce beneficial insects.

How do I properly prune my terrarium plants?

Use clean scissors or pruning shears to trim overgrown or dead leaves. Regular pruning encourages healthy growth and keeps your terrarium looking neat.

Q1: How often should I water the plants in my closed terrarium?
A1: Watering should be minimal. Check the soil moisture levels every few weeks, and only add water when the top few centimetres of the soil have dried out. Overwatering can lead to issues such as mould and root rot.

Q2: Can I keep my terrarium in a room with low natural light?
A2: While these plants thrive in bright, indirect light, they can also adapt to low-light conditions. Consider using an LED grow light to supplement natural light, which can help maintain the health and growth of your terrarium plants.

Q3: What should I do if my terrarium plants start to overgrow their space?
A3: Regularly prune your plants to manage growth and maintain the aesthetic of your terrarium. You can propagate the trimmings to expand your plant collection or share with friends. This helps keep a balanced ecosystem within your terrarium.

☀️ Light

☀️☀️▫️ (Medium) – Tropical Terrarium Plants thrive in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves, but ensure they receive enough ambient light to maintain their vibrant colors and growth.

? Water

??▫️ (Medium) – Water your terrarium plants when the top few centimeters of soil feel dry. Ensure the water soaks through the soil but does not leave the plants sitting in water. Closed terrariums retain more moisture, reducing the frequency of watering needed.

?️ Temperature

?️?️▫️ (Average) – These plants prefer a stable temperature typical of indoor environments. Aim for temperatures between 18-24°C (64-75°F), avoiding any drastic temperature changes which could stress the plants.

? Humidity

??? (High) – High humidity levels, ideally between 80-90%, are crucial for the thriving of your Tropical Terrarium Plants. Closed terrariums naturally boost humidity which helps mimic the plants’ native tropical environments.

? Repotting

Generally, terrarium plants can be left in their original setup for long periods. However, if you notice roots crowding, consider dividing the plants or transferring them to a slightly larger terrarium container with fresh terrarium-specific soil containing sphagnum moss and activated charcoal for healthy growth.

? Pet Friendliness

While many terrarium plants are non-toxic, some might pose a risk to pets. Always check individual plant species for their pet safety or contact us at Highland Moss for a pet-friendly selection.

? Recommended Locations at Home

Place your terrarium in a location that receives medium indirect light, such as near a north-facing window or a well-lit office. Avoid placing it near intense heat sources like direct afternoon sunlight or heating vents.

? Air Purifying

Terrarium plants contribute to a cleaner indoor air environment by absorbing pollutants and producing oxygen. They’re a natural and attractive way to enhance your home’s air quality.

✨ Other Plant Features

Beyond their lush and vibrant appearance, these terrarium plants are selected for their ease of care and ability to create a self-sustaining ecosystem. Many are capable of propagation, allowing you to expand your plant collection or share with friends.

Authentic Photos of Our Plants: We take every photo you see, showcasing the actual plants we offer. Each plant is selected randomly unless otherwise stated, adding a touch of surprise to your order.

Natural Variations Make Each Plant Unique: No two plants are the same. Differences in size, leaf count, and minor cosmetic imperfections are part of their charm and individuality, making your plant truly one of a kind.

Healthy Plants, Always: While we can’t guarantee an exact match to the photos, we promise to send only happy, healthy plants that are well-cared for and ready to thrive in your space.

Let Your Plant Settle: Allow your new plant to adjust to its surroundings for 1–2 weeks before repotting, propagating, or making any major changes. This settling-in period reduces stress and helps your plant flourish.

Shipped-in Trusted Potting Mix: Our plants are delivered in a standard grower’s potting mix. When you’re ready to repot, choose from our premium-quality mixes designed specifically for aroids, succulents, and terrariums, available in our shop.

Expert Guidance on Repotting: I’m unsure if it’s time to repot. Check out our article, When to Repot Your Plant, for expert advice on keeping your plant healthy and happy.

Support for Climbing Plants: For Monstera, Philodendron, and Syngonium, add one of our handmade sphagnum moss poles and a watering drip cup. These accessories encourage natural growth, support larger leaves, and keep your plants neat and upright.

I really enjoyed the workshop which was absolutely perfect – I learned so much and the information given was spot on step by step. I know that I will be visiting the shop often given my already love of plants – particularly house plants and of course to say hello ‍♂️ and see Noel and Angus – they are lovely and an asset to your business. Thank you all so much.
