Plants For Terrariums

look at the que garden site or look at the lizerds you want and then look at wear they come from.you can normaly put the plants that you keep indoors in them like cheese plants etc.depends on the inhabitants realy.what about them plants that they used to glue on chinese figures that dont need watering .a lot of lizerds come from desert were there isnt much plant.the other option that i mite be inclined to do is plastic plants theyve come a long way .maybe check out a goot pet suplier /

This is a sealed glass container for growing plants, definately no Lizards !!!

This one's not circular like most but rectangular and the opening is about 3" across.

Items that flower aren't suitable,even though some garden centres say they are, because when they drop them they'll rot.

Any more suggestions ?

I occassionally see very small plants at the GC when they are doing a feature on "miniature gardens"...but other than that all I can suggest is you buy some very small, slow growing green plants such as ferns, that would enjoy a moisture rich atmosphere. Have you tried online yet?..Perhaps Fractal could suggest somewhere ?
Sorry couldn't be more positive....

Thank you both.

I had forgotten that Fractal worked in a garden centre, i'll see if he can suggest something too.

By the way, i had no idea at all that animals were put into Terrariums so i apologise if i came across a bit 'off' Noseypotter.

I've had success in the past with small fragile ferns, hypoestes, pilea, syngonium, peperomia, african violets (Saintpaulia spp.), baby’s tears (Soleirolia soleirolii), and silver net plant (Fittonia verschaffeltii var. argyroneura ‘Minima’). Other suitable plants are begonias, crotons, and dracaena.

Thanks Bernie.
I'll copy those down and see if i can find them.
WHY is it so difficult to get them ???

no worries louise why not try some of the predatry plants.they come from very wet areas with hardley any food hence being predatry.excuse my spelling

Now that's an idea too, hadn't considered them Nosey, thanks :)
