I love that your terrarium was not oversaturated with too many plants. This shows that the hardscape is part of the environment, and is not just a base to be covered with tons of plants.

Nice. I realized that a large part of your success is your boxes from which you take your cuttings i.e. having healthy plants to use in your terrarium. If you get time, I'm sure i'm not the only one who would benefit from a demonstration of how you create and maintain your grow out boxes. Thanks again for the lovely project.

I've been getting those sized jars from the local asian supermarket where I live here in canada. They sell loose leaf tea in them (am big into loose leaf), so terrarium containers are just a bonus anytime I finish off a jar of tea :D
Another beautiful Masterpiece! Hats off to you boss! 👏
