Dome Terrarium Styles

Found with glass and plastic rims, a terrarium dome stores decorations, plants, moss, and small insects in a self contained environment. The two most popular styles of glass dome terrariums are open lid and closed lid domes. Closed or sealed dome terrariums can create self contained plant environments or water cycles, but limit access to objects inside thanks to their seal. However, they are great for low maintenance plants that love humidity. As a decoration, sealed domes can be used as shadow boxes, storing memories and achievements in clear, sealed glass. Open terrariums have no seal and can't create water cycles or maintain a sealed ecosystem. When used for plants, open domes require more maintenance than closed domes, but are great for table decorations and plants that need more direct care. A glass dome terrarium with a base can be found in a number of unique designs, including hexagon glass patterns, gilded cages, circle balls, and other geometric patterns. Some domes come ready to hang or dangle for a levitating look. Whether searching for a golden dome or a simple small glass dome, find the decor piece perfect for plants at Alibaba.com.

Dome Terrarium Sizes

A large glass and metal dome terrarium can be small enough for a single plant or large enough for an entire showcase of gravel, moss, and flowers. Glass dome terrariums can come in small palm size orbs averaging at 10 by 12 centimeters. Small domes are big enough to hold singular plants with gravel or small decorations like fairy lights. For an entire ecosystem, a large glass or plastic terrarium can be found in sizes 12 by 12 inches and larger. These domes can hold multiple species of plants, soil, and gravel with plenty of height for them to grow upwards. Match the dome terrarium size to its intended decoration or plant, with enough width and height for it to grow comfortably.

How to Use a Dome Terrarium

Dome terrariums can be used to store living flora or inanimate objects like fairy lights and small statues for color centerpieces. Building a glass dome plant house will differ depending on its style but generally requires the same items. Fill the dome with soil and stones to start to keep plants and roots secure. Adding in moss will keep the terrarium moist, trapping water in the dome for long term humidity. Then, place it in the plant, pairing it with other greenery from similar environments to help it thrive. Sealed dome terrariums should be opened once a day for twenty minutes to help with air circulation, while open domes may need additional moisture spray and watering. Place terrariums in the home, office, or business space for a touch of natural decor at any destination. Dome terrariums should be cleaned with hot water and bleach when swapping the inside plants to prevent unwanted debris from contaminating the new plants.
