Putting Together a Terrarium with Ferns! 🌿💚// Garden Answer

[@shaphillips1759]

I love ferns. Havent had any luck because of how dry out house and climate gets. Have an old hooded fish tank i have been wanting use as a terrarium.

[@Greengreen-qv3be]

I think this one is my favorite you’ve ever done because it looks so natural it’s adorable I love it so much! Super envious lol I need to remake it

[@bonnieorr2634]

Had a thought, you should get a portable large mirror to set up by the camera so you can see the front of your projects as you do them on the table. Love, love, love your videos! You have a beautiful spirit Laura. I am so glad I stumbled across Garden Answer. I think I will try and plant some stuff this year. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@pamnapier-uhl1362]

That is just so pretty! I remember terrariums from the 70’s- not at all the same!! Lol 😂

[@spidermonkey1962]

Those are absolutely gorgeous. Russell is so cute.

[@lolacookie453]

I love that you don’t shooo Russell away, he’s adorable and a lovely helper. Just bought my first maidenhair two weeks ago and repotted her today she is high maintenance but sooo lovely. 🥰

[@rebeccawoodbixler9536]

I love this!! Laura and restraint...it paid off beautifully! Plus a twofer fern! 🌿💚😊

[@jackiedee3639]

That is so gorgeous. Would make a great mother's day gift!

[@amandaprewitt949]

I love love love love love these bell jar terrariums so much.

[@barbll000]

I'm so excited that my garden store has many ferns. I got one of each in small pots. I have a small and very cute terrarium that I can try this with. I'll post on FB once complete. Love the info on ferns Laura. Many thanks.

[@shirleysenkler781]

The terrarium is so pretty, I was afraid the pinecones wood be to big but they are perfect. It looks like a dab of the forest in your house.

[@deannededemariehampton768]

BEAUTIFUL!!!! I love the way it looks, well done 👍 I know it was hard not to put more in there, I also have trouble with the maidenhair-fern and the Boston fern and I really love the maidenhair. Thank you so much Laura for all the great tips. I’m going to watch more!! God bless you guys.

[@alexprovencio9247]

This video is absolutely perfect. I appreciate you sharing some of the more human moments in the process and how you make adjustments while editing out some of the more unnecessary parts.

[@Shellplumb]

I just moved, so I'm binge watching to get caught up! I LOVE your "set" in the porch/sunroom! Exciting to watch the background outside change with the seasons.

[@sheilasaxton3836]

I love your KZbin videos and often share them with my grandson that loves to raise succulents

[@lightwavz]

Thumbs up for fern terrariums. Two thumbs up for Russell! 🐈

[@laurieanne9712]

Loved this! See you Friday in Charlotte, NC, Lord willing! And I'm bringing a friend. Yay!

[@aliiljah8224]

The Maidenhair Fern is my absolute favorite fern. They are so delicate. But, I have the same problem you do. They do not last very long around me with the humidity and all. I will have to try the terrarium and see how that will work, at least I know it will not dry out it will probably drown. Great video, thanks.

[@klcpca]

Your arrangement is beautiful... but please keep in mind that a staghorn fern can get VERY large and grows shields that can cover the maidenhair!!! Russell is gorgeous!! 💖💖💖

[@debbrad477]

Your terrarium is beautiful. Love the rocks and pinecones you put in it.🌴💖🌴

[@cv7357]

Great idea!!!! I love ferns, but cannot grow in my home... Never thought of this idea and looks so naturey and pretty. .

[@haylinmilsam]

Very nice! I have plans for a small terrarium, and I’m so happy I found this video! 😊 Always a joy watching you in your beautiful surroundings. You remind me of my niece who lives in Beaverton!

[@Blake-jj6dx]

You should get a gardenia and put it in your greenhouse or somewhere warm. The smell is just the best thing

[@kellybrown2028]

Another super creative project of yours that came out awesome! My husband surprised me with Philly Flower show tickets for 3/9. I saw in your one video you guys will be there before then, but I will still be rocking my Garden Answer tee! You have inspired me so much this last year and have helped my garden become something amazing! Thank you :) :)

[@chicamepa]

I really love this filming spot!

[@chicamepa]

You are SO talented!! you amaze me every time!!

[@wandaarganbright4056]

It would be fun if you would film a video following Russell around your garden. Show him enjoying the garden. At least a segment of one of videos with your "wild life" in the garden (you know, the cats and Ben.) 😉 I know this channel is about gardening, but gardens are to enjoy and seeing them enjoy what y'all are creating shows the reason for it. Not just for looks.

[@Nancy-lc8jw]

So cute !

[@emkn1479]

I LOVE a fern terrarium! Another thing I’ve found to help individual plants is picking up a simple bowl- or vase-shaped glass vessel (readily found at thrift stores and antique shops) and inverting it over/resting it on top of a potted plant. My maidenhair fern is doing really well this way. And with the whole thing placed inside a footed planter it looks like a fern in a bubblegum dispenser...cuter than it sounds 😉 I also found a huge hurricane-style glass that I placed over a tall fern. It can be a more affordable option, especially for a single, more established plant. But I’m working on terrariums too! Anything to make these beauties survive indoors 🤞

[@radhikam2401]

Amazing amazing amazing! A video from GA first thing in the morning is the best way to start the day. 💚

[@carolbeatty2468]

Oh what a nice coffee with Laura video to watch before heading to work!! I love this idea and may try it out in my classroom as I have a couple of windows that this could sit by. Thank you again for all the awesome ideas!!!

[@cherylcentenioblessedvirgi3241]

I like your arrangement very much. Thank you for sharing.

[@margiemcpeak9304]

Love the concept! If I put one of these together, I'd purchase "pixie/fairy" size plants so that i could, hopefully, enjoy the end product for a longer period of time. Most ferns will outgrow even the largest terrarium cloches very quickly if the humidity is right! Russell just had to make sure that everything on the table was fine. He IS your "watch kitty" after all! Thanks for sharing! ALWAYS plant love! 🌾💜

[@margiemcpeak9304]

P.S. Although I've lived in Charlotte for 37+ years, it makes me sad and sorry that I can't meet you guys, Laura & Aaron, at the Southern Spring Show this weekend! I'm very sick & believe it's the flu! My selfish side would attend, regardless; but, I can't risk making Benjamin sick. I truly hope you both have a wonderful time in The Queen City! God bless you all.

[@anapaulacaiadomachadohoe]

Absolutely gorgeous!! ❤😍

[@hollyhasegawa4240]

I love this terrarium, and loved the plants that you placed in each one. I would have to find a special spot for one if I made one, right now I don't have a good spot for one, but maybe one day. I love Russell, he is just a typical curious kitty. Thank you for sharing your beautiful terrariums, see you in your next video, Bye for now.

[@pennysantana7809]

I love this idea, perfect for my kitchen. Thank you 🙏

[@johnjwedrall4290]

Thank you, I'm learning and loving your making it easy to do videos 👍👍❗

[@Ann_ann_804]

What a beautiful terrarium!

[@cindyswain6613]

So cool and pretty!

[@rochellesassbug931]

Yay for Russell!

[@paulag.panzermd8239]

This was helpful and really timely. Yesterday I put together a “fake” terrarium or one without a cover, which still adds some humidity for my fern. I will post a picture and tag you. It’s not as thorough as what you’ve done but it’s still fun. Thank you for this video.

[@martamelendez231]

Still giving us great ideas from the archives!

[@LauraGarcia-jd8tx]

Thank you for your help 😅 I was absolutely lost about this matter 😘🤗🤗

[@emme8255]

Very nicely done, I might try a red maple from seed and trim it as the years pass, then pull it out and have the start of a bonsia or maybe a small forest start.

[@diversegardener392]

OMG! I have been waiting for my garden shops to carry ferns. I just bought glass containers from Kirklands for some fern projects. Now I have to jump on it Laura, thank you so mush for this demonstration. : )

[@fsaforosaforo6338]

Very informative video. I am going to try this method with a Rabbit Foot Fern I have that is growing quite well right now in a plastic fish tank my grand daughter let me keep. I have never had success with this type of fern but your video gives me hope I will now. I am also going to try the other two ferns presented in your video as well as they are also very difficult to grow and keep happy. Thanks again, Flo

[@Masha-wl3it]

WOW! I love it 😍 I'd like to try it by myself

[@peggytrue6769]

Nice work Laura. Looking forward to meeting you on Friday in Charlotte, NC the show should be great. Safe travels.

[@camicri4263]

So pretty! I wish I had space by the window. Great job both of you as always 💜🌱🐈

[@jsmith3980]

A great video, thank you.I made a terrarium using your video as a guide.Lovely and clear delivery and so easy to follow.

[@lovelyladygodbless143]

Lovely as always 🌹thanks for sharing loving Russel too 😀👌

[@kellistanley2670]

I love this so much! You are my absolute favorite!

[@salisebastian4826]

so pretty.

[@marooon9814]

Thank you!! I’m hoping to build some fern terrariums, the added moisture will help me keep them in a dryer room with my succulents (hopefully)

[@bluesky7226]

Laura, you just reminded me that I have one of those exact glass domes stashed somewhere. Time to find it! I enjoy all your videos.

[@thelmahall2593]

Wow I love the two terrariums

[@dannmurray1199]

Looks easy and fun!

[@khristiewelliott3869]

I have been checking out terrarium for my air plants, love this cloche ones and I am thinking to get one but still have no ideas what I am going to use it for, until I see your video. Always enjoy your videos, love love your taste 😍😍 you are so talented 👌🙌

[@rusticanrefined]

Very pretty!

[@CottageGardensonForest]

Perfect timing! I have three small ferns ready to do the same arrangement. Wish mine had the air holes.

[@janc9965]

I really love this.....only thing is I can’t this terrarium here. 😥 you inspire me so much Laura. Just love watching your videos. Thank you 💙🌷💜🌷💙

[@KimCarmenWalsh]

Gorgeous!!

[@carolgrant8242]

[@hol8787]

We literally just made one of these the other day! Wish I had watched this first the stones look so neat underneath than just soil.

[@vanessavioletprincess1881]

It looks absolutely gorgeous. Now you wanna make me try terrariums so bad! So glad I found your channel, you seem so lovely

[@mrstefansgreens]

I love ferns! Great work!

[@raeperonneau4941]

Love these!

[@Thomas1980]

Beautiful Video! Thumbs Up

[@pambonesteel3775]

I LOVE the fern terrarium!

[@pamketron]

🌿🌱 This turned out really pretty. Love the pine cones. The way you mixed the moss on top really makes it look so natural. 🐈🐾💙

[@deerojas54]

Beautiful

[@anthonyiroler1684]

Absolutely beautiful love the staghorn fern and lucky you ended up with an extra!

[@Rayjordan19]

Lol just found we live in the same town. Wow now I got to check out you perents garden store cuz home depot is not working that well. So cool!! 😃

[@debbiethomas9586]

Love it 💕

[@lyndamello8857]

Great video! So glad to see Russell! 😺

[@kyrad6543]

Cats are so "helpful"! They have their own definition of that word.

[@joshuaparson6233]

The planets look nice in the glass.

[@amandamichelle4854]

Oh my goodness, I’ve just found your channel & I’m absolutely loving binge watching your videos!! So informative, but really fun too 🌱💕

[@hweta6607]

Beautiful 😍

[@racheldreamslife]

Beautiful!

[@bbsbacktobasics7695]

Looks Great 👌 what you would see naturally in a wooded creekside area. I love it. I'd like to get one and make arrangement. Thanks Laura.

[@SweetStuffOnMonarchLane]

Nice! Looks like a little mini forest. I was thinking the same thing when you chose the smooth-leaved plant over the ruffled one with the fern. The textures look nice together. :)

[@Uneedmoremeds]

I love this terrarium and rhst you pack your arrangements to the max☺. Russell is too cute and wanted his camera time. He's a 🌟. Thanks for sharing☺👍❤.

[@CreaturesThird]

Hi, love your vids! I've been experimenting with enclosed, humid terrariums for the past several years, and perhaps you may find this suggestion helpful. I've stopped using the "preserved" moss (the dyed stuff from craft stores) because it's not actually living anymore. This causes it to mold and it spreads to the other plants. I highly recommend using "mood moss" instead. You can find it at places like floral shops and specialty garden centers. It is actually living, and when you buy it it's in a dormant state, but once you water it pops back to life really quickly. Plus, it grows along with your other plants. However, I wouldn't recommend for succulent terrariums, as it will turn yellow after a while if not in a humid environment. Best of luck!!

[@margiemcpeak9304]

VERY good info! Thanks for sharing! 🌾💜

[@tameraalexander1249]

Gosh, I was hoping to find something like that, thank you for sharing your experience. I love this channel and find excitement in what our lovely host creates, she is fantastic.

[@ewellacres]

One of the first terrariums I ever built was as a little kid taking one of our spare 10 gallon fish tanks. I find it a great learning experience not only for adults but especially for kids.

[@RheynEhrow]

I’m always been a fan of your works ❤️❤️

[@izavelguzman1992]

No te entiendo nada pero tus. Videos me gustan y me dan tranquilidad

[@louisebrown4671]

Beautiful!!!🌿🙂

[@rspruill1422]

I like to grp in threes... i got excited when u were bout to put the other half of the fern u divided😁 But it still came out beauftiful👍🏾

[@neldahargo29]

do you have a tutorial on the various plant foods you use for planting and seasonal feeding? if i missed it, would you please just post a link?

[@mizzmartinni6014]

Love this project 👍🏽💚

[@kyrad6543]

I think your sun porch is just perfect for filming videos this time of year when it's a bit cold or windy outside. It's really nice in there! Great lighting. How are you going to water the terrarium? Will you have to lift off the lid or just tip it up or use the holes in the glass?

[@sheilamuleadygirardi]

I am so wanting to try the hydrostones...I have some cool glass containers that were for desktop fishes (fishes gone now) so will be trying out some open terrariums.

[@lisac.norman8096]

you should show us how you water them after you are finished planting

[@chelseascreatures]

me: "I don't need another terrarium" also me:"oooh I have pine cones... hmmm maybe I do need another one..." :P

[@karenmena9429]

I love it

[@vivian3859]

Sealed bottle gardens are really cool you should try it out p.s love the videos keep up the good work 😊

[@misskelly9184]

Like the video but i loved Russell’s appearance!!!!!

[@yvonnemcdermott7235]

Hello, love the video! The only thing I would have wanted to see that was not included was how exactly to water a terrarium like this.

[@brittanyg6796]

Do a video about palms next please!!! 🌴
