Terrariums: Gardening in Glass - Hannah Dayley
Constructing a terrarium balances art and science. You’re putting together a tiny low-input ecosystem—a mini desert (open terrarium for succulents and cacti) or rainforest floor (traditional globe type terrarium filled with humidity lovers).
Hannah will first explain the science of terrarium construction: how to construct the base layers (gravel, charcoal, soil), how to choose plants suitable for your terrarium’s light level and style, how to plant them.
Then she’ll show you the art—how to select plants with complementary forms and colors and how to use decorative rocks, colored sand, and accents to add the finishing touches to your project. Sky Nursery 18528 Aurora Ave N. Shoreline 98133 206-546-4851
