Terrarium Soil
Our terrarium soil is a hand blended mix of worm castings, coco coir and orchid bark compost.
Our Terrarium blend combines the 5 most vital components of a healthy soil mix:
Aeration: Oxygenates the plant root system.
Water retention: Makes sure the plants are hydrated correctly and encourages transpiration.
Drainage: Helps prevent root rot.
Nutrition: Healthy plant growth and lush foliage.
Soil Fertility: Excellent at holding, storing and releasing nutrients when required.

0.5 litres - 10-14cm diameter glass

How We Package Our DIY Terrarium Kits
This is definitely the most asked question we receive!
We have shipped thousands of DIY Terrarium Kits all over Australia in the last three years and 99.99% of them arrive safe and sound. All of our glass is wrapped in bio degradable bubble wrap and boxed in strong cardboard packaging that protects the glass extremely well.
Landfill-biodegradable bubble wrap for protecting and storing items can be recycled or disposed of in the general rubbish bin. Once disposed to landfill biodegradation is accelerated approximately 90+% faster than conventional bubble wrap, producing an organic matter (a natural fertiliser) and no microplastics. Learn more here.
Our plants are sent as plugs that are watered before packaging and can easily survive one week in the post.
Our terrarium supplies are all wrapped in cellophane that can be recycled at some supermarkets through Redcycle.
In the rare instance that your package does arrive damaged, please get in touch with photos of damage and we will happily replace the broken glass for you. Customer happiness is our number one priority.
Would you like to send your order as a gift? No problem at all! We can add a handwritten card for you at no extra charge. Just pop your message in the notes to seller at checkout and we'll make sure to add it.
