The document discusses how to make a terrarium or miniature garden. It explains that a terrarium is an enclosed glass container that can simulate different ecosystems using plants. It provides instructions for making a terrarium, including using succulents or other types of plants depending on moisture needs, layers of rocks and soil, activated charcoal, and decorative elements. Proper lighting and watering of the planted terrarium are also covered.

Willow trees are well known for their swift rooting. The Navajo willow (Salix matsudana) is a drought resistant species that can be used for reforestation to combat desertification. One can apply the bottle reforestation method or plant rooted cuttings directly in the soil.

Each and every miniature garden has its own personality. Some are filled with miniature trees that mimic the big branches and green leaves of life-size parks and gardens. Others assemble mini succulents or colorful flowers.
A greenhouse uses a special kind of glass that acts as a medium that selectively transmitsspectral frequencies. Spectral comes from the word “spectrum”.In layman's terms, a spectral frequency can be defined in terms of the following principle: any object in the universe emits, radiates or transmits light. The distribution of this light along an electromagnetic spectrum is determined by the object's composition...

1. Make a terrarium mini-gardenmini-garden
We planted succulents in our terrarium. We picked different shapes, colors, and sizes. Succulents need very
little water.
Terarium atau Virarium adalah media atau wadah yang terbuat dari kaca atau plastik
transparan berisi tanaman, yang diperuntukkan bagi beragam kebutuhan, seperti untuk
penelitian, metode bercocok tanam maupun dekorasi. Dapat dikatakan bahwa terarium
merupakan biosfer buatan yang paling alami karena fungsi biologis yang terjadi dalam terarium
pun mirip dengan yang terjadi di alam. Sehingga terarium dapat juga dijadikan laboratorium
biologi mini.
Terarium menampilkan taman miniatur dalam media kaca. Terarium dapat mensimulasikan
kondisi di alam yang sebenarnya dalam media kaca tersebut. Misalnya terarium dapat
mensimulasikan ekosistem gurun, ekosistem padang pasir, ekosistem hutan hujan tropis dan
bermacam-macam ekosistem lainnya.
Terarium Pertama kali diperkenalkan di Inggris. Diawali dengan rumah kaca mini di Kerajaan
Inggris dan kaum bangsawan kemudian terarium menjadi terkenal di seluruh dunia termasuk di
Indonesia.
Alat ini terdiri dari sebuah kotak yang memiliki ukuran panjang, lebar dan tinggi kurang lebih 40
cm x 30 cm x 25 cm. Dinding belakangnya terbuat dari seng yang berlubang-lubang. Alas dan
tutupnya terbuat dari plastik tembus pandang. Pada alasnya terdapat sebuah baki plastik. Ada
juga model yang tutupnya miring terbuat dari kaca dan dapat dibongkar pasang.
2. A terrarium is like an aquarium, but for plants instead of fish. It is made in just about
any glass container. It is planted to look like a miniature garden or forest enclosed in
its own little world.
You can easily make a beautiful terrarium yourself.
First, you want all the plants to thrive in the same kind of environment. For example,
you could plant all succulents (including cactus), because they need very little water.
Or you could plant all ferns, because they like it moist. You could put moss with the
ferns, because moss likes it moist too. If you put a fern with a cactus, one or the
other might not do well (the fern if it gets too dry, the cactus if it gets too wet).
You can use an open container or a closed container.
An open container is best for succulents and cacti. They like lots of air.
A closed container (with a lid) might be best for ferns, ivies, and begonias. They like
it humid. But if you see a lot of water condensing on the lid, remove it for a while,
then replace it.
For any terrarium, you need:
Clear glass container. For example, aquarium of any size, goldfish bowl, cookie jar,
pickle jar, vase with a broad bottom, brandy snifter, or even a shallow dish with a
glass bowl turned upside-down over it.
Rocks (around marble sized, depending on the size of container)
Activated charcoal to filter the water and help prevent growth of fungi
Potting Soil (sterilized)
Small plants of different colors, shapes, & textures. Try to get miniature plants that
aren’t going to grow too big for the container.
Optional:
Moss
Decorative rocks or pebbles, or both
3. Fun décor, like tiny pine cones, shells, ceramic animals, or a garden gnome.
Make sure your glass container is clean and shiny.
The layers of rock and soil are part of the beauty of your terrarium.
Start with a layer of rocks, about one inch or so, at the bottom of your container .
These will help the soil drainage, so the roots of your plants won’t get water -logged.
Add a 1/2-inch-thick layer of charcoal.
Fill the container up to half-full with potting soil.
Plant your plants. When you remove them from their little pots, carefully tease the
roots apart and remove some of the old soil so they will fit nicely in the terrarium.
Arrange them to look nice. Leave some space for them to breathe and grow. Pat
down the soil so they don’t get uprooted easily.
Add decorative pebbles, rocks, pine cones, or whatever to make your terrarium look
like a little garden world.
Water the plants, but not too much.
Place in indirect light.
