A plant garden that can be enclosed in a bowl would seem fascinating to anyone, and we are no exceptions. Terrariums have become the new excitement among plant lovers, and rightfully so. However, not a lot of people know about these enticing plants. Most of the time, when we talk about this amazing garden in a bowl, we often tackle the question \u201cwhat is Terrarium?\u201d And today, we are aiming towards changing it. So, for all the lovely anthophiles out there, here is a brief yet exciting introduction to this graciously graceful plant:<\/p>\n<div style=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/floweraura-blog-img.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/plants-blogs\/jan-5\/what-is-terrarium.jpg\" alt=\"What is Terrarium\" title=\"What is Terrarium: A Brief Introduction\" style=\"\" \/><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sweet\">How do Terrariums come into being &amp; what does it mean?<\/h2>\n<p>The first time one hears this term, it sounds a lot like the aquarium, and to put it simply, that is how it is! Just replace the water &amp; fish with earth and plants. The term consists of two Latin words \u201cterra\u201d which means earth and \u201cairum\u201d which means a place. In other words, terrariums are earth and plants, inside a bowl or jar. It\u2019s like having a very small garden, that looks incredibly charming, inside your home.<\/p>\n<div id=\"blog-all-images\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/floweraura-blog-img.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/plants-blogs\/jan-5\/terrarium-1.jpg\" alt=\"Terrarium Plant\" title=\"Terrarium Plant\" \/><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>To tell you a secret, the origin of the most beautiful plant type was actually a happy accident. Let us take you back in time in 1829 when Dr. Nathaniel Bagshaw Ward, a naturalist of London, was trying to observe moths in a closed soil-filled jar. Yes, you read that right, Terrariums birth is the result of a moth study. Anyway! No moth emerged, however a small plant emerged in the soil. Dr. Ward observed the small water beads on the side of the jar and was amazed by the fact that there is a small, self-sufficient eco-system inside the jar. He started experimenting with different plant types and the very first plant was able to survive for over three years, without water.<\/p>\n<div id=\"blog-all-images\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/floweraura-blog-img.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/plants-blogs\/jan-5\/terrarium-2.jpg\" alt=\"Terrarium Plant\" title=\"Terrarium Plant\" \/><\/div>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>The news of the garden in the bowl quickly spread among the high society of Victorian London. One thing to know about Victorian London is that people back then loved exotic plants. People of that time adored indoor plants so much that, the term \u201cFern fever\u201d was actually used to describe how much they love them! Therefore, it\u2019s not surprising that Terrariums quickly become the talk of the town.<\/p>\n<div id=\"blog-all-images\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/floweraura-blog-img.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/plants-blogs\/jan-5\/terrarium-3.jpg\" alt=\"Terrarium Plant\" title=\"Terrarium Plant\" \/><\/div>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sweet\">Lastly\u2026<\/h2>\n<p>To this day, Terrarium holds the supreme position when it comes to house plants.
