Keep it thriving

A little care.
A world of difference.

Good light, thoughtful watering, and a moment to check in. Small habits help your little landscape settle in.

Light

Most terrariums prefer bright indirect light. Direct sun can overheat glass and scorch delicate leaves.

A little help

Terrarium questions, answered.

Which areas does Canopy Creek serve?

We mainly serve Bangalore (Bengaluru). Message @canopy.creek on Instagram to confirm collection or delivery options for your area before ordering.

How do I choose an open or closed terrarium?

A closed terrarium holds moisture and suits humidity-loving plants such as fittonia and moss. An open terrarium allows more airflow and usually needs more frequent checks for dry soil. Choose for the plants inside and the light available in your room.

Where should I keep my terrarium?

Place it in bright, indirect light, away from strong direct sun and hot windows. Glass can trap heat. Light requirements vary by plant, so check the plant guide before choosing a spot.

How often should I water a terrarium?

Check the soil and plants before adding water instead of following a fixed schedule. Closed terrariums recycle moisture and generally need less watering. Open containers dry out faster. Avoid standing water and ask for care advice for your chosen planting.

Can I give a terrarium as a gift?

A terrarium can make a living gift for a home or desk. Think about the recipient’s available light and how much care they can give. Message Canopy Creek on Instagram to discuss the available designs and prices.
