Terrariums in Shrewsbury
We specialise in terrariums at The Garden Room, from ready-made designs to everything you need to create your own. Whether you’re new to terrariums or looking for something a little different, we’re always happy to help you get started.
What is a Terrarium?
A terrarium is a miniature garden created in a container, where the growing conditions are carefully controlled.
Open terrariums are ideal for cacti and succulents, while closed terrariums are better suited to plants that enjoy a humid environment, such as ferns and mosses.
Closed terrariums develop their own ecosystems and, once established, are largely self-sustaining and low maintenance — ideal if you’re not the best at remembering to water your plants.
Ready-made & bespoke Terrariums
We have a selection of ready-made terrariums in store, each carefully planted in house, using suitable plants and materials.
We can also create bespoke terrariums, whether you have a specific container in mind or would like something made to your own style.
Create your own Terrarium
If you’d like to build your own terrarium, we stock everything you need to get started, including suitable plants, substrates, stones and specialist tools.
We’re always happy to guide you through the process and help you choose the right combination of plants and materials.
Terrarium Workshops
We also run terrarium workshops, which are a relaxed and hands-on way to learn how to create your own miniature garden.
They’re suitable for beginners and great fun for all ages, even if you don’t have green fingers.
You can find more details on our workshops page.
