Back in September, I had visions of harvesting fall lettuces in my new garden beds by now. Since we know that’s not going to happen, I needed a little fix. I’m not very good with houseplants, which is funny since I’m pretty good with outdoor gardening.  Before we had kids, we had a nice orchid collection….they’ve since been given away. Now, I have a beloved Bay tree that moves in and out with the seasons, and not a whole lot else…my Bonsai missed a few watering cycles and is now in ICU. Hopeless.
My childhood fascination with terrariums has never waned…and they are quite forgiving. I got a vintage mushroom jar and scooped up some moss and ferns from out in the yard. 3 weeks on and everyone is still healthy and green, so maybe, I have found my perfect indoor gardening vehicle. I still want the orb one day, but lets see if I can keep this one alive first.
