A Closed Carboy Terrarium | The Survival Gardener

[ad_1]

This carboy terrarium is a cool project.

Way back when, my mother-in-law gave me a beautiful glass carboy that had used to belong to her mother with the challenge to plant it up as a terrarium. Not quite sure how to go about it, I put it off for years, happy just to have the empty carboy out on display instead, but after attending a terrarium workshop, I finally felt brave enough to give it a go and over a year on (sealed the whole time), it’s still alive!

Here’s how I went about planting up my closed bottle terrarium…

I found a book on terrarium gardens at Poppy’s Antique Mall in Atmore. It was from 1972, and I should have taken a picture of it to post here, but I didn’t, so we’ll keep this oldskool.

The real question is: can you grow a mini food forest in a jar?
