Come join Robi or Edward for an evening of planting up your own bottle terrarium.

In this workshop, you’ll learn everything you need to know about terrariums, from the history of how they came about to the science of how these tiny ecosystems thrive.

At the end of the evening, you’ll take home your freshly planted garden-under-glass and watch it grow.

What happens in a Terrarium workshop?

You’ll learn about the history and science behind these self-sustaining ecosystems before watching a quick demonstration where we describe the tools and plants on the table before getting stuck in to make your terrarium.

We use a variety of small tropical plants such as fittonia, ferns, pileas and mosses. You’ll be able to use a variety of plants, and every terrarium created always looks unique and beautiful.
