I’ve got a lot of cool plants ready for you to make your own terrarium, so book your time now, space is limited.

For $100, you can plant a 10 inch bubble bowl with exotic miniature tropical plants from my collection while learning about the art and science of building and maintaining terrariums.  Everything you need is provided, although I suggest you bring your own special crystals or trinkets, minerals, etc. to build your world.

Workshops will be held at 10:30 am and 1:30 pm on Saturday March 10 and Sunday March 11.  Only two people per time slot unless you have a group of friends who want to play and learn together.

Give me a call at 901-828-3685 or send a message below for more info and to reserve your time.

Peace and Love

Nancy

Demonstration and Sale at Urban Earth February 3rd

Hey, come see me Saturday February 3, 2018, at 1:00 pm at Urban Earth, 80 Flicker Street.  I’m going to build a terrarium to show you how to have a green friend that will grow for years, and tell you a little about the history of terrariums, too.

You can shop for a Green Mansion terrarium by appointment only, and I’m happy to have the opportunity to discuss the level of maintenance and environmental needs of the various terries.

I collect and grow miniature tropical plants for sale, along with kits of planting substrate.

Give me a call at 901-828-3685 with any questions or send a message below.  Remember to follow this page for information on events and just general green thoughts, follow me on Facebook, and @memphisplantlady on Instagram.

Have a great day – spring is around the corner.  Nancy

Interesting Tidbits Terrarium Care

So Where Should I Put This Terrarium?

The bright filtered light in the Crosstown Concourse is perfect for this terrarium of moss and selaginella. It is more than a year old, and requires trimming every 4-6 months.

Living as I do surrounded by potted plants and terrariums, I sometimes feel like St. Exupery’s Little Prince on his home planet, carefully attending to the Rose’s needs for sun, water, and protection from the evening chill, and enjoying her companionship in return. Plants are sentient creatures, and once you become attuned to their modes of communication it gets easier to care for them, and the pleasure they bring to you magnifies.

 

 

You can put them away from a window so long as you have a broad spectrum light. Plants need light to make food, remember?

 

Terry babies of moss need bright light, these are in an east window. You can’t just put these little guys in a bookcase

Give me a call to discuss your ideas on size and location for a terrarium in your home or office.  Whether you want something small right off my shelf today, or you want to plan and build something unique for your space, we can find a new little world of your own to cherish for many years.
