Terrarium Workshop + Coffee at Streatham Community Gardens
Join us to learn how to build your own Demijohn Terrarium. Ship-in-a-bottle style glass garden.
These beautiful vintage wine-making bottles make the most eye-catching terrariums. We will show you all the techniques and give you the tools to create these from scratch.
We will explain the history of Terrariums, how to care for them and the ideal plants to fill them with. You will be provided with everything you need to create your own ecosystem, we will have a range of plants for you to choose from including Fittonia, Ficus and Moss as well as a large sealable glass jar. We will guide you through creating your own terrarium which will be all yours to take home at the end of the session.
You will leave with a care guide for your terrarium, as well as all the information you need to know to make more terrariums as we know they can be quite addictive!
We will be hosting this event at the gorgeous Streatham Community Gardens in their brand new education room! You will be more than welcome to explore the gardens during your visit.
