The Lost Kingdom — Bell Jar Terrarium
Every great kingdom needs a forest. This enchanting bell jar terrarium builds a whole world beneath the glass — a tiny stone castle nestled amongst vivid red Fittonia, white-veined Fittonia, trailing green foliage, cushion moss, and dark slate rocks. Mysterious, lush, and completely captivating.
The closed dome creates a self-sustaining microclimate that largely takes care of itself — a living storybook that sits beautifully on a shelf, desk, or bedside table. A perfect gift for anyone who believes in a little magic.
Hand-planted individually — each one carries its own subtle character in planting, moss coverage, and stone arrangement.

🌿 Care Guide — Closed Terrarium
Light: Bright, indirect light. Never in direct sun — the glass dome amplifies heat and will stress the plants. A well-lit shelf or north/east-facing windowsill is ideal.
Watering: Rarely needed. The closed dome recycles its own moisture through condensation. Light fogging on the glass each morning is a healthy sign. If the glass stays completely clear for several days, add a small splash of water (20–30ml) around the base and replace the dome.
Ventilation: If condensation is heavy and blocks your view for more than a day, lift the dome for a few hours then replace.
Temperature: 18–26°C. Keep away from heaters, air conditioning vents, and cold draughts. The Syngonium loves warmth and humidity — the dome provides both naturally.
Feeding: Quarter-strength liquid fertiliser once every 2–3 months in spring and summer only. Avoid overfeeding — the Syngonium will outgrow the dome quickly.
Pruning: Trim the Syngonium if it grows too tall for the dome. Remove any dead or yellowing leaves promptly to keep the ecosystem healthy.
