Build Your Own - Tall Tropical Terrarium Kit

Build Your Own - Tall Tropical Terrarium Kit

Build your own tall tropical terrarium with a ready-packed Living Art kit.

 

This kit has been prepared for a tall glass terrarium design, using layered materials that help create a humid, shaded miniature forest environment. It is ideal for tropical plants, moss, ferns, and miniature orchids that enjoy gentle light and consistent moisture.

 

Each kit includes the glass container, moss, and a miniature orchid, together with the essential terrarium layers needed to build your own planted display from the ground up.

 

Each layer is packed separately and labelled with step-by-step guidance, making the build simple and enjoyable while still giving you space to create your own natural arrangement.

 

Your kit includes:

  • A tall glass container
  • A miniature orchid
  • Moss
  • Pebbles for the drainage layer
  • Mesh and liner separation layers
  • Sphagnum moss for clean glass edges and moisture control
  • Decorative black crushed rock
  • Washed sand filtration layer
  • Activated charcoal
  • Premium growing mix
  • Bark chips, wood, stones, or decorative finishing elements
  • A printed build guide
  • A general care guide

 

The build guide takes you through each stage, from preparing the drainage layer and decorative filtration layers to planting, finishing touches, and the first light watering. The included care guide explains how to look after your terrarium once it is built, including light, temperature, watering, condensation, and airflow.

 

Tall tropical terrariums are designed to be low maintenance once established. They prefer low to medium indirect light, a stable indoor temperature, and very careful watering. The most important things to avoid are direct sun on the glass and overwatering.

 

Please note: each kit is individually prepared, so the exact orchid, moss, wood, stones, and decorative details may vary slightly from the product photos. Each one will still include the glass, moss, and a miniature orchid, and will be packed to create the same tall tropical terrarium style.
