#terrarium is coming along nicely. Misted twice per month with rainwater. The maidenhair fern originally struggled but the new growth seems to be coping well. #houseplant #fern #moss

More #terrariums. I'm giving these away but can see a bit of an obsession starting here.

I left them on my neighbours' doorsteps like milk bottles.

Ferns are the only houseplant that always die on me maybe I should try this. What compost are they planted in 😊

@angiecrazycatlady it's usually not humid enough - central heating. Closed terrarium in indirect light would give them the best chance I hope. I used a houseplant compost for these, although a lot of guides recommend peat for the moss.

I'm going to give that a go as I love ferns but hate killing them 😁
