Enclosed Terrariums (Pilea/Fittonia)

Different species of Pilea and Fittonia are 'landscaped' like a tropical garden in these Enclosed Terrariums. These plants have a high tolerance for humidity and moisture, hence well suited to be enclosed in the glass where moisture is recycled through evaporation and condensation. Place them in well-lit area and they only require watering once a month or even less. They actually form a microcosmic, self-contained ecosystem of plants.
