Terrarium

I decided to plant a terrarium.

I bought this particular one off Amazon because I liked how it looked a lot. The layers in it are:

1. Pebbles -- I had some colored stones from a previous project.
2. Activated Charcoal -- I checked a home improvement store and a local aquarium store, but nada. I read somewhere that I could have tried a drugstore. In any event, I ordered this online also.
3. Dirt -- I used cactus dirt because of the succulents, and figured the big plant would be okay in the dirt it came in.
4. Moss -- TOTALLY FORGOT this...I had planned to get some from outside. Maybe when I work with it next!
5. Plants

One thing I knew I was doing wrong was that I mixed succulents, which need very little water with a more tropical plant, which needs more water. I did this...and we'll see how it works out.

One thing I didn't expect was that the plants look crowded. They looked fine, until I put the top on...but I think I should have used fewer plants. Or maybe that one gigantic plant in the back is too big. Again, we will see! It's my first try at this!
