As human beings have transitioned to indoor living, the need to keep the natural world close at hand has persisted. While traditional houseplants bring nature to the interior landscape, terrariums offer something different: A three dimensional window into a microcosm of the outside world. Mathilde Lelievre's Terrariums offers plant lovers step-by-step instructions for the creation of more than twenty stunning terrarium projects. Overviews of the tools, containers, plants and materials will ensure that aspiring indoor gardeners are well prepared. Separate sections cover open, closed, and advanced terrariums, each with its own palette of recommended plants and set of care instructions. Incredible photography elevates the book beyond how-to guide and makes it a covetable object for plant lovers of all kinds, whether they wish simply to look, or want to roll up their sleeves and create something beautiful.
