Plantiful Lunchtimes: Succulent and Cacti Terrariums

Part of a series of short lunchtime workshops with Laneway Learning, designed for taking a break from WFH or daily routine.

Let’s get our hands dirty and discover the amazing mental well-being qualities of gardening and indoor plants!

Terrariums are easy to take care of and very trendy! You can make closed ones, where you create your own ecosystem. Or open ones, which are more suited to succulents and cacti. In this class, we will learn how to make our own open terrarium from scratch. Think of it as “mini-landscaping”! Should I add a little hill? maybe a sand beach or a rock path?

What will we cover?

  • How to design a terrarium for functionality, so it lasts alive for a long time
  • How to make it pretty and “landscape” your terrarium
  • What plants work well and which ones to cluster together
  • How to keep your new plant-babies happy and well.
