You would adapt plants accordingly but you could get miniature ivy and other houseplants that take more shade and they should do well--most houseplants are tropical plants anyway so they thrive from the added humidity a terrarium offers.<BR/><BR/>One Mom--no new projects for me :) I'm lucky to get myself dressed nowadays. But the ones I started back a while ago are doing well--the glass is covered with dust but they're still alive. The little samurai orchid has done well which is exciting, they're harder to grow.<BR/><BR/>As for suppliers, I'd recommend going online unless you live in a hub that would have that kind of thing. There are lots of suppliers, do some Googling and compare prices. As for the Wardian cases (which I LOVE) you can often find them on ebay though many of them are antique and can be pricey. Once again, Google is your friend.Scribbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03178711182424809035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-80162530703395947282008-09-03T05:41:00.000-08:002008-09-03T05:41:00.000-08:00Okay, I love this idea.

I have tried indoor gardening - herbs primarily in order to be practical as well as pretty - but they failed because I have no direct sunlight into my house. The entire house is shaded, so I get filtered light through all of my windows except a brief period (maybe an hour or so) in the evening. Would this still work?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-3679862853737927752008-09-03T05:39:00.000-08:002008-09-03T05:39:00.000-08:00I am so inspired!
