Succulents like aloe vera and jade plants are perfect for a terrarium, requiring minimal care while providing an attractive, drought-tolerant addition to your mini ecosystem.
Air plants (Tillandsia) thrive without soil, making them ideal for small terrariums, adding an intriguing, delicate look with their spiky leaves and low-maintenance nature.
Adding moss, like sheet moss or pillow moss, brings a soft, vibrant touch to your terrarium and helps maintain moisture in the enclosed environment.
Ferns, like the Boston fern or maidenhair fern, offer a rich, green texture and thrive in the humidity of a terrarium, creating a vibrant, tropical atmosphere.
Creeping fig (Ficus pumila) is a fantastic option for adding vertical greenery to your terrarium, its vines creating an aesthetic flow and a natural, jungle-like effect.
If you prefer a drier environment, small cacti like the barrel cactus or prickly pear add a striking, minimalistic touch to your terrarium without requiring much water.
Certain begonias, like the rex begonia, can bring beautiful color and texture to your terrarium with their unique, patterned leaves and occasional vibrant flowers.
