DIY Medium Terrarium Starter Gift Box Set

Make your own terrarium or send this kit as a beautiful and rewarding gift!





$58 (Afterpay available)



Create your own beautiful terrarium from scratch with this quality blend of materials formulated especially for terrarium making.
These tried and tested substrates have been carefully developed and used over years within our own successful terrarium builds, and contain a special blend of ingredients combined to encourage long-term success.
Ideal for both closed and open terrariums, Ladyfern's very own soil mix ensures a neutral pH delivering available essential nutrients and minerals all within a light and airy mix. Unlike most terrarium blends on the market, our blend is sphagnum and peat moss-free, both non-renewable resources we believe should be avoided. The ingredients provide excellent moisture retention and balanced drainage, ideal for encouraging natural processes much like a miniature ecosystem.
In this kit, you will receive enough substrates to create a medium-sized terrarium around 20cm in diameter or a few smaller terrariums. This kit does not include the glass so it’s perfect if you already have a glass jar or vase ready to be transformed into a stunning living art piece.
Ideal for use with humidity-loving miniature plants and cuttings. This kit is suitable for a range of plant varieties commonly sold as indoor plants including ferns, fittonia, syngoniums, and calathea to name just a few.
We’ve measured this kit with a classic glass fishbowl design in mind; however, you can get creative and make a terrarium in almost any shaped container.
All our kits are handmade in small batches and arrive thoughtfully put together with eco-friendly packaging so it not only looks cute but won’t hurt the environment - perfectly ready for gifting!

  • Step-by-step instructions
  • Terrarium care guide
