I love that latest container! Very cool how the ball just sits on top. The arrangement turned out so pretty. Sedums are one of my favorite plants for outdoor use and I love that you used this one indoors!
This was like a bit of nostalgia for me. One of the first GA videos I watched was the, now epic, wooden dough bowl planter. I attempted a similar idea in a wooden salad bowl. Sadly the plants only lasted a few months - I mismatched watering needs - and the bowl is cleaned out + used for yarn. On the upside, my garden and indoors plants (I've given it another go) are happier that I continued to watch and learn.
I can kill anything, even Rosemary. However, I’ve had a Haiworthia for over 2 years (in a non-draining pot too!) and just removed 5 babies and they’re all thriving. Definitely my favorite plant.
I've always felt that keeping a plant alive in a pot without holes is 100% doable. I just dunno how you would flush the soil/media of built up nutrient salts.
I find your videos so inspirational, thank you for sharing! I wanted to plant a few things in my front yard 2 years ago and didn’t know where to begin so I was googling some inspirational pictures and stumbled upon one of your videos. I since watched every video you ever put out there and have an amazing little oasis going on in front of my house. I have an amazing tulip show in the spring which is an envy of all neighbors, all thanks to your guidance and encouragement. I cannot start my day without watching your new video over breakfast. Now I find myself venturing out into succulent world. Again, all credit goes to your channel! 4 years ago I couldn’t keep a cactus alive and I have more than 40 different variety house plants now. Thank you for being a wonderful teacher and forever inspiration to all of us!
I usually try to support local garden centers, but my Kroger has succulents on clearance for $0.25 each! Let’s just say I helped to lessen the stock greatly 😂
When you started doing the new arrangement I imagined just having that first plant surrounded by green moss. It would be like a magic rose in the terrarium 🥰🙃
IM SO EXCITED 😁, I got a beautiful container for my birthday, and I now know what I'm going to do, THANK YOU LAURA!!! You have such a way of making magic happen with succulents. God bless you all.
Well Laura you have done it again. In the past few months I have purchased a Dewalt drill, espoma products, and a gorilla ladder. Now I need a terrarium and an auto lawnmower 😃😃! I am learning so much and having a great time! You guys are a complete joy and pleasure and can't wait to see the newest little princess addition. Blessings to you and yours and thank you so much for sharing your life and wonderful spirit!
Laura you are so inspiring. I've been watching Garden Answer for the past three years. I think I found your channel when I was looking to make a fountain for the children's garden I and my friend made at a Christian day camp my family and I were living at after we lost our home in a fire. We lived there for a year and ten months while our house was being rebuilt. I spent many a evening learning from you . All that to say a heart felt thank you.
Mine never look that great. I’ve not done the hydro stones so I may try those. Also, when you said Mason jar, it reminded me...they make a pint jar now that is very short and squatty. I may have a few of those left. I put my homemade mixes in them this year. They are darling and would be perfect for a small one. Woo hoo! Tfs. God bless. 👏🏻💕👏🏻
Laura; Thank you for the inspiration. Every time I get discouraged I remember what a very cheerful pregnant lady is accomplishing! Did you and Aaron ever consider planting a small grove of short needle pine trees (with a windproof fence around the base) for a source of organic soil acidifier? I use the pine needles dropped (and they drop a good amount in the Fall here) around my azaleas...works great. You could mix the needles you rake up in the top layer of soil. And you could probably plant hollies around the base of the pine tree area.
I just got a fresh batch of succulents! Yes I have stopped using gravel as a bottom layer, now I use the gravel for decoration! Loved this refresher on planting succulents in a terrarium! I do have containers waiting for planting! 😃🌿🌵🪴🌿❤
Always love seeing what you can do inside. Look forward to more videos on houseplants. IDEA: Would love a video on how you decide to do a staging arrangement. Watch you stage things at the garden center and at home inspires me to try but doesn't quite turn out. Love a video addressing what you look at, how much is too much or not enough. Thank you!
I love these type of videos. I just started doing terrariums and indoor plants. Definitely a learning curve from outdoor plants. Your impact on the gardening community is huge. The hydro stones are sold out on amazon. 😃
That looks like a little snow globe to me! I love it! I think it would be sweet to put a terrarium together with little dinosaurs/cars and ballerina figurines for Benjamin’s and baby girls room!
I really appreciate this update. The new glass container is fun in appearance. I bought a case of hydrostones, rather than a bag, two years ago (by mistake). I have a few terrariums and I forgot that I have the hydrostones. Thanks for the wonderful reminder; I have some winter projects to now think about.
Thank you for this video. It was nice to see an arrangement where only three succulents were used and I love the simplicity of the container as well. I definitely want to try out the hydro stones for a new succulent arrangement I’m making in A small galvanized container. And I loved seeing the update On the little glass terrarium. Thank you again
I Absolutely Love it. I put a piece of window screen to keep the dirt off the bottom layer. I am excited to make a new one. Thank you so much for sharing.
I picked up a few succs yesterday and have a few props growing...I think I’ll put together a terrarium with them. Thanks, again, for the inspiration, Laura!
Thank you for addressing the gravel at the bottom of containers! I find that people are so used to it, that when I potted plants for customers it was a must 😑
Planning to make two succulent terrariums for the animal hospital I work at. I’m gonna put them in fish aquariums. Seems fitting. Wanna try putting maybe little fish or lizard or frog figurines as decoration.
When you pulled out the pump sprayer I lost it 🤣🤣 this video makes me want to go fix all my succulents from last year that I've been neglecting! Thanks girl!
For the most part, they are bug free and look great in the bathroom window, laundry room or other out of the way areas. Also look great, spaced on a metal bakers rack. Seeing more & more, used on shelving inside offices.
So cute! Love succulents! Laura, when you made the original terrarium several years ago I rushed out and bought several of those terrarium kits and have loved them! I have never been able to find a big syringe like you suggest, but I have found a great alternative - a plastic squeeze bottle! It holds a fair amount of water and it is so useful to water the hard to reach plants and pots because it is so easy to direct the stream of water.
We've got an old, glass sugar container that the sealing gasket has gotten old & we can't find a replacement. Been thinking about putting it on it's side & planting it. Need to bring those sensitive succulents in anyway. Gonna look for hydrostones, they're just perfect!
Good morning! I'm repotting and working on houseplants this morning too. coincidentally am going to garden center where I work today to pick up succulents for a terrarium planter. This was a perfect video for this time of year.😁
Love all your videos guys. Really! Look forward to them everyday. If you wouldnt mind a little advice. Is anyone is like me, we are watching and enjoying and then suddenly it’s over and you are saying “see you in the next one” and I don’t have enough time to like the video before the next one is queued. I always go back. But maybe have a longer outro or screen with all your platforms etc. It would give us slower to respond people more time to like. 😂
Love it! Thank you so much for showing us this. I recently did a succulent and cactus planting with my grandson. I never knew you could tear away some of the roots that way? As gardeners we are always taught to try and not disturb the root ball of anything! So my question is...how do you know exactly how much water to give your succulents when you initially plant them? And then how do you guage when they need watered again? Some of mine did fine while others dried up and died...🙄
I’m not a huge fan of succulents. They’re nice but they haven’t been a big enough interest to want to have them in the house. However, when u can find nice or fun terrariums to put them in, it makes them much more appealing. I may have to up my google game and see what kind of terrariums are out there. 🙂
Hi Laura! Totally off topic but if you guys ever sit out in your cosy fireplace now it’s cooler I’d LOVE to see it up and running!! I’ve tried looking all over to see if you’ve ever posted it before but can’t find anything (you probably have though). Love from Perth, Western Australia where we are expecting 37 degrees Celsius tomorrow and it’s not even November 😬
Hi y'all, from NC. Thank you for the video(s) about succulent plants. I made my first fairy garden for my granddaughter and didn't know the difference between the stones. So off to Amazon I go. Thank you again.
Love the new one. I'll have to look for those aqua stones. I love making terrariums, I have one that's just moss in a vintage clear coffee pot that I've had in my kitchen for years.
wow, what a neat container!! you have me looking around my house now and think "outside the pot" ... really cute and fun... hydra stones added to the list!! and now project #, hmmm... 897,694,356??? thanks for the video!!
At first it looked like it had a pom pom on top, so cute. Good to see you take it easy Laura😊. Maybe we can get an update on your house plants, old and new? 😁 Thanks! Have a great day! (It's 717am and 69* here🙄)
I’m in shock! Only THREE tiny plants??? Laura, there’s surface area still open. Don’t you want to stuff more plants in?!?! 😂 This was great. Really cute. I probably would’ve turned around and grabbed 3 more baby succulents off that shelf behind you, but maybe sometimes less is more. Very pretty.
Although outdoor gardening is my cup of tea, this video (and others like it) was very interesting, and I love the variety of plants AND that container---cool! Thanks for sharing your passion(s) with us. --> Hey, did I miss you sneaking over to your parents' garden and planting daffs in it?
Your killing me here LOL! I need a link for THAT particular ball topped terrarium. Can’t find one with that base. Love your videos! Watch them each morning with my coffee. Thank you for helping me shift my Texas farming skills to Northwest gardening!
I find from experience that the rosette-shaped echeverias need good air flow in addition to good light to maintain their shape and color, so I don't think they're good candidates for terrariums.
Yes thank you, my plan for this winter’s indoor plant season is to get a handle on succulent care; I took careful notes to do my shopping and installation. Only thing is our area Thrift shops are still closed to find unique planters. I’ll have to shop my house. Have you guys ever done a guide to succulents?
I have an empty bourbon bottle that I think I might try. The neck is narrow, but I might see what I can drop in there. 😬 First find hydrostones. 🤔🌵🌵🌴🌴🌱🌱🍀🍀
That explanation of the water being higher than the gravel relates to why gravel should NOT be used in potted plants. It raises the water table. This is a very misunderstood concept. People think that gravel in the bottom helps drainage when it does not. It actually makes drainage worse. Keep saying it. Growing A Greener World has tested and proved it in their videos.
Jim Putnam from Horttube describes that bottom soil layer as the kill zone and it makes perfect sense! You want the kill zone as low as possible so adding gravel only raises the kill zone.
Years ago, before gardenweb became houzz, a man by the name of Al (username tapla), developed a soil-less potting mix to be used with liquid fertilizer in specific proportions. He also gave the best explanation of what happens when one puts rocks at the base of containers. I don't remember exactly, but it has to do with the tension of the water's surface and the size of the rocks. The bottom line was that doing so had the opposite effect of permitting free drainage and causes the water to pool at the bottom of the pot right at the level of the rocks, ultimately causing root rot. After all this time I am a little surprised by how many so-called plant experts recommend adding rocks to containers. That's why I come here for my garden answers. (See what I did there?) ~ Lisa
I opened up my Fine Gardening magazine and there you were. Wow, I was so proud!
Your succulent planters have awakened something in me
I love that latest container! Very cool how the ball just sits on top. The arrangement turned out so pretty. Sedums are one of my favorite plants for outdoor use and I love that you used this one indoors!
This was like a bit of nostalgia for me. One of the first GA videos I watched was the, now epic, wooden dough bowl planter. I attempted a similar idea in a wooden salad bowl. Sadly the plants only lasted a few months - I mismatched watering needs - and the bowl is cleaned out + used for yarn. On the upside, my garden and indoors plants (I've given it another go) are happier that I continued to watch and learn.
I can kill anything, even Rosemary. However, I’ve had a Haiworthia for over 2 years (in a non-draining pot too!) and just removed 5 babies and they’re all thriving. Definitely my favorite plant.
I've always felt that keeping a plant alive in a pot without holes is 100% doable. I just dunno how you would flush the soil/media of built up nutrient salts.
megpoh: Very nice, congratulations :)

What a neat project for the ever changing seasons! The shift is upon us! Blessings everyone!
I usually try to support local garden centers, but my Kroger has succulents on clearance for $0.25 each! Let’s just say I helped to lessen the stock greatly 😂
Whoa! Who could pass that up! Jealous!
New one here
@@AnnaDunlap247Rolltide New one here
Wow!! Who could pass that up! I paid a small fortune at Home Depot... Yay for you!!🙂
I bought so many half dead, super cheap plants from Lowes this spring/summer and all they needed was some water and tlc.
When you started doing the new arrangement I imagined just having that first plant surrounded by green moss. It would be like a magic rose in the terrarium 🥰🙃
IM SO EXCITED 😁, I got a beautiful container for my birthday, and I now know what I'm going to do, THANK YOU LAURA!!! You have such a way of making magic happen with succulents. God bless you all.

Hydrostones... great for growing orchids in semi hydro set up... love that medium 🌸
Oh my gosh! I just rewatched this old video last weekend. I was so confused when I saw the thumbnail but now I’m super pumped.
Laura; Thank you for the inspiration. Every time I get discouraged I remember what a very cheerful pregnant lady is accomplishing! Did you and Aaron ever consider planting a small grove of short needle pine trees (with a windproof fence around the base) for a source of organic soil acidifier?

And you could probably plant hollies around the base of the pine tree area.
So pretty❤️.. also just my opinion the single echeveria with some moss would also look stunning.
I LOVE that cement terrarium!! Beautiful. 💗💗💗
I just got a fresh batch of succulents! Yes I have stopped using gravel as a bottom layer, now I use the gravel for decoration! Loved this refresher on planting succulents in a terrarium! I do have containers waiting for planting! 😃🌿🌵🪴🌿❤
Those hydro stones are a game changer.

I was just watching that terrarium today and I wondered how it was doing and it's here 👍Very happy 😊Also I love terrariums
It's the Fibonacci sequence!!!! Natures secret code. The pinecone, the seashell the sunflower the Dahlia that's why we love it!!!!!
Still looks amazing! Succulents are always worth talking about.
I love these type of videos. I just started doing terrariums and indoor plants. Definitely a learning curve from outdoor plants. Your impact on the gardening community is huge. The hydro stones are sold out on amazon. 😃
Wow, I love that container! I wouldn’t be able to stand winter without my plants. TFS!
Very nice! God's creations are so peaceful and beautiful.
The shallow dish is lovely and the new one is a really pretty cement like look. Love them.
That container is SO cute!! I think I wanna try this 😲
That looks like a little snow globe to me! I love it! I think it would be sweet to put a terrarium together with little dinosaurs/cars and ballerina figurines for Benjamin’s and baby girls room!
Just added “make a terrarium” to my winter to-do list! Thanks for sharing.
I really appreciate this update. The new glass container is fun in appearance. I bought a case of hydrostones, rather than a bag, two years ago (by mistake).

Thank you for the time you take for showing us how to take care of our plants 🥰
Every time I watch one of your projects I want to run right out to obtain all the supplies to make my own.
I picked up a few succs yesterday and have a few props growing...I think I’ll put together a terrarium with them. Thanks, again, for the inspiration, Laura!
I think you'd have so much fun trying to aquascape a planted aquarium, it would be so fun to watch :)
Love that terrarium container!
Thank you for addressing the gravel at the bottom of containers! I find that people are so used to it, that when I potted plants for customers it was a must 😑
Good morning! 🌻🐝
Planning to make two succulent terrariums for the animal hospital I work at. I’m gonna put them in fish aquariums. Seems fitting. Wanna try putting maybe little fish or lizard or frog figurines as decoration.
Your videos are always informative. Thanks for sharing your knowledge🌸
Ahhh yes, the big spoon method of filling in the dirt gaps! I do the same thing!
Hi Laura, I like the colors of plants that you chose. Very nice and colorful.
When you pulled out the pump sprayer I lost it 🤣🤣 this video makes me want to go fix all my succulents from last year that I've been neglecting! Thanks girl!
For the most part, they are bug free and look great in the bathroom window, laundry room or other out of the way areas. Also look great, spaced on a metal bakers rack. Seeing more & more, used on shelving inside offices.

Wow 3 years! I remember watching that when you first made it! 😲 it looks amazing!

I have never used succulents but after seeing this you’ve inspired me Laura to give it a try 🌺⛲️🌺
You forgot to list where you got the container you used. Very cool looking, thanks for sharing and looking forward to the next one.
You're going to love to do that in the barn! So much cleaner!
Love all your videos guys. Really! Look forward to them everyday. If you wouldnt mind a little advice.

Beautiful terrariums! Love the tip of using aquarium rocks for decoration! Thanks!
I like that container!
Pretty and fun ... and inspiring - I feel some new things are going to get created and displayed around my house. 😊
This is good to know. I have some of my Mom's china bowls and cups I've thought would look pretty with succulents.
Love it! Thank you so much for showing us this. I recently did a succulent and cactus planting with my grandson. I never knew you could tear away some of the roots that way?

It will be nice when you can do these things, out in the new area!!
I have tried multiple times but cannot keep succulent planters alive. Yours are beautiful.
I'm definitely going to do this. I love how pretty this looks.
Omg I remember when you made the first one!
As soon as you put the first plant in the terrarium my mind immediately went to Beauty and the Beast. You could have stopped there. LOL.
I love love love these types of videos from you!
I love succulents, but I don't have luck with them. Yours are gorgeous.
This makes me want to make one as I’m a plant fanatic 😉
That is so cool. Love the terrarium
Winter projects!!!!!
I’m in shock! Only THREE tiny plants??? Laura, there’s surface area still open. Don’t you want to stuff more plants in?!?! 😂
This was great. Really cute. I probably would’ve turned around and grabbed 3 more baby succulents off that shelf behind you, but maybe sometimes less is more. Very pretty.

Beautiful! I love it!
This will be a fun project
Your killing me here LOL! I need a link for THAT particular ball topped terrarium. Can’t find one with that base. Love your videos! Watch them each morning with my coffee. Thank you for helping me shift my Texas farming skills to Northwest gardening!
Did you find the ball top terranium
I’m wondering the same thing. Does anyone have a link?
Looks beautiful.
I find from experience that the rosette-shaped echeverias need good air flow in addition to good light to maintain their shape and color, so I don't think they're good candidates for terrariums.
The question, of course: where is your new terrarium pot from, please??
Yes thank you, my plan for this winter’s indoor plant season is to get a handle on succulent care; I took careful notes to do my shopping and installation. Only thing is our area Thrift shops are still closed to find unique planters. I’ll have to shop my house. Have you guys ever done a guide to succulents?
Thank you for the update love the new one
Hi Laura.. Ty for the video.. I always learn something new...
Would like to try this method👌keep up the good work
.God bless u n your family
Lovely arrangement
Beautiful! Inspired once again! 🌱
I am so bad with succulents. I end up loving them too much and they die. Yours turned out so nice.
looks lovely
I have an empty bourbon bottle that I think I might try. The neck is narrow, but I might see what I can drop in there. 😬 First find hydrostones. 🤔🌵🌵🌴🌴🌱🌱🍀🍀
