Terrarium Garden Kit Cultivating plants in a terrarium is a rewarding and relaxing hobby that many around the country enjoy. People who take up terrariums as a hobby say the connection with nature makes them feel calmer. Growing these miniature plants adds organic texture to your home and helps cleanse the air of impurities. However, some people have difficulty deciding what to grow in their miniature gardens. Fortunately, TN Nursery can help you get started with a Terrarium Garden Kit that will give you several must-have elements. Our kit is unlike any that you’ll find elsewhere. Terrarium Garden Kit care and maintenance The difference between our terrarium garden kit and others is that we collect all the materials fresh from the wild–from the fertile hills of Tennessee. Because the content of the kit is hand-collected, no two pieces are exactly alike. Our daughter Bailey harvests the healthiest, most vibrant forest plants she can find from the hills surrounding our central Tennessee nursery. Some might find and include , lichen, mosses, mushrooms or other fungi, or partridgeberry plants. So you see, each kit is unique because it depends on what Bailey locates that day. What a delightful surprise! After collecting the best plants for the terrarium garden kit, she supplies you with ultra-rich worm castings to nourish your plants and keep them lush and green. We limit these sales because that careful selection process is very time-intensive. Bailey helps us fulfill these orders each evening after work, so she can only harvest the content for about three terrarium garden kits daily. The product images show a few actual kits–each of which Bailey assembled for past customers. Yours may vary from these pictures, but we are confident you will be delighted! PLEASE NOTE- The glass container is not included, it is just a picture of the possibility of what your kit could look like.  Start Your Indoor Terrarium Garden Today If you are eager to start your miniature garden, you can (and should!) start today. Along with many other plants suitable for your indoor garden, TN Nursery can assemble a terrarium garden kit and ship it to you. All we need is your order!

Lawn Moss - 5 Square Feet
$31.99
Lawn Moss Lawn Moss: If grass fails to thrive in your yard, lawn moss might present the ideal solution to that problem. Turfgrasses can be persnickety--they require just the right fertilizer, sunshine, and water. On top of that, turfgrass demands weekly caretaking. Think of the time spent on mowing, edging, and other time-demanding tasks. On the other hand, using lawn moss as a ground cover offers a time-saving and carefree solution. Lawn Moss Is a Time Saver Lawn moss is a bryophyte plant with no roots or veins. Instead of receiving nutrients and moisture through a root system and transporting them via veins, they absorb everything they need from the air. Their independent nature relieves you of the time fertilizing and watering. You also need not mow or otherwise tend to it every weekend. Imagine not spending every Saturday afternoon cutting the grass. Lawn Moss Is Kinder to the Environment Than Turfgrasses In addition to saving you time, lawn moss is eco-friendlier than lawn grasses. For starters, lawn moss requires only minimal watering. Remember, it's drawing in moisture in the air. Unless you live in an arid climate, it does not need your help. Second, we mentioned how you do not need to cut or trim lawn moss weekly. This timesaver also means you save on energy costs. Whether you have a gas-powered or electric mower, you will not consume that energy source in caring for your yard. Lawn Moss Prospers in the Most Challenging Growing Circumstances Your yard might not support turfgrass because of dense shade, a lack of natural nutrients, or a texture that fussy grass does not like. In any of these circumstances, lawn moss can give you the look of a green lawn without having the perfect growing conditions for grass. It requires part-shade to full shade and prefers a humid area. It can grow in arid parts of the United States with regular watering. Lawn moss can thrive in acidic soil conditions, out of rocks, on the side of dead trees, and out of logs without assistance from a gardener. Can you imagine a plush, thick, green carpet of lawn moss filling in all the dead spots in your backyard? Buy Your Lawn Moss From TN Nursery Today TN Nursery digs moss fresh with each order, ensuring you have the best experience.

Reindeer Moss - 5 Square Feet
$38.99
Reindeer Moss (Cladonia ringiferina) Reindeer Moss Cladonia ringiferina is a species native to northern and eastern North America. Gardeners love this unique moss for its interesting texture and almost airy appearance. But more importantly, gardeners love how this resilient species can make itself comfortable in virtually any soil and climate. How resilient is Reindeer Moss? If you traveled to Alaska, you could even spot it on the Arctic Tundra, where water is too saline for most plants and frozen most of the year. Conversely, it grows through USDA growing zone 9 to the warmer temperatures in the driest parts of the south.  TN Nursery recommends this species for those who live in dry climates with limited access to water. Reindeer Moss Is Ideal for Arid Environments Do you live in an area with frequent water restrictions? If you love the look of moss but have limited ability to water it, Reindeer Moss may provide just the solution you need. Most mosses prefer a cool and moist climate. But Reindeer Moss is a xerophytic species. What does that mean? Xerophytic plants prefer arid climates and prefer a low-humidity environment. In fact, Cladonia ringiferina's density is best on dry sites, and its abundance decreases with increased moisture. Live in a Challenging Growing Environment? Try Cladonia rangiferina Reindeer moss grows in unexpected places, such as: From rocky outcroppings In dead moss From woody debris or dead trees Arid, desert regions Deep boreal forests. Reindeer Moss Has a Lovely Appearance and an Alluring Texture Reindeer Moss has an otherworldy appearance, with branching filaments resembling a reindeer's horns. Let's not stop the reindeer metaphor there. The colorful green stems give way to creamy white branches, giving those reindeer horn branches a snow-tipped look. As the rootless plant develops, the branches' weight will appear like a mat that sprawls lazily across the ground. This beautiful species can grow to about four inches in height and reach a diameter of about two feet.

You may find others calling it delicate fern moss or common fern moss, but all refer to Thuidium delecatulum. This North American native species is widespread in the United States and Europe. Its native habitat is shady woods and wetlands. It grows on rocks, logs, and stumps and in swampy areas--it is unfussy about having good soil quality. It needs a little attention for the first few months after planting, especially if you experience a hot season or drought. But it becomes almost maintenance-free after it takes hold and starts to spread. Fern moss is a terrific ground cover plant, even in slow-draining or acidic soils around juniper or pine trees. Fern Moss Is an Enchanting Ornamental Moss Fern moss takes its name from its appearance. This moss has delicate, velvety frond-like leaves that look like tiny ferns. Upon closer inspection, the leaf texture has a peach fuzz coating that resembles tiny hairs. Although the fronds can grow up to four inches long, they lay over under their weight. That draping effect creates a lovely, dense mat that adds a pure earthy green to your garden bed. Unlike some mossy species, fern moss also tolerates foot traffic. Fern Moss Is a Very Tolerant Species Once you plant fern moss, it requires very little care from you. Although it prefers moist to boggy living conditions, it can conversely tolerate short hot spells and drought. If you have a location with poor drainage and heavy shade, fern moss would be an excellent plant to consider.

Sphagnum Moss - 5 Square Feet
$32.99
Sphagnum Moss (Spagnum centrale) Sphagnum Moss: You might better recognize spaghnum moss by its more widely known name, peat moss. This mossy plant is beloved by gardeners who cultivate this moss to add nutrients and retain moisture in their soil.  Gardeners in drought-prone areas benefit from using sphagnum moss as a ground cover plant to minimize their need for water. Sphagnum moss is especially helpful for people who grow herb gardens, vegetables, berry plants, or flower gardens in locations that require a lot of sunshine that parches the earth. Amending the soil with dead sphagnum moss can help increase the garden's moisture retention, absorbing water not allowing to go in the ground. Besides being fantastic for adding nutrients and locking in water, sphagnum moss provides lovely green foliage that spreads relatively quickly. It's a beautiful addition to any shade garden. Sphagnum Moss Contributes to a Healthy Ecosystem Some call sphagnum moss an environment manipulator. As it grows, it can change the makeup of the ecosystem. Sphagnum absorbs minerals like magnesium and calcium and then releases hydrogen ions acidifying the environment. This process makes growing Sphagnum centrale an ideal way to acidify more alkaline soils naturally without using harsh chemical treatments.  Some plants that benefit from this acidification process include berries, orchids, tomatoes, and other fruits.  Sphagnum Moss Retains Water Like Nobody's Business You might call sphagnum moss a moisture magnet. This mossy plant has a cell structure that retains significant amounts of moisture. The plant has a barrel shape with tiny, sponge-like openings that pull in a surprisingly large amount of water.  After it collects the humidity, sphagnum moss expels the water into the surrounding area. As the peat moss continues reproducing and expanding its footprint, it creates puddles around it that grow in size with the expansion of the spread of the moss. As older sphagnum dies, it adds nutrients to the soil and will decompose slowly, becoming an excellent, moisture-rich compost and potting mix. Sphagnum moss should be part of your plan to grow a more resilient, self-sufficient garden.

Peat Moss (Sphagnum centrale) Peat Moss: Many gardeners, even those with years of experience, often express surprise when they learn how easy it is to grow peat moss (Sphagnum centrale) in their backyards. This favorite potting medium enjoys popularity when planting tomatoes, berries, orchids, and other acid-loving plants. But somehow, gardeners rarely consider growing it themselves! Peat moss is a ground cover that expands quickly to form a dense mat in locations considered too shady for other plants. However, it also displays bright green foliage, making the area more lively and attractive. Peat Moss Can Enliven Your Yard Do you have areas of partial to heavy shade? If you have tried growing grass or other plants without any luck, you may have nutrient-depleted soil, too little rainfall, or too little sunshine. You might even have a combination of all three of those factors. Peat moss can help resolve that problem. First, it is a ground cover moss that will revitalize the area with its joyful green hues. Second, peat moss can bring life back to that barren part of your yard. It grows in the shadiest of spots, requiring only filtered sun. Moreover, its growth process can add moisture and nutrition back to your depleted soil. The barrel-shaped plant has spongy cells that wick in magnesium, calcium, and rainfall like a magnet. It then expels the water back to its immediate area. As the plants die, they compost on the ground, releasing the minerals and helping to lock in moisture. Consequently, the life cycle of peat moss helps to correct the deficiencies and bring your shady yard back to life. Peat Moss Makes a Wonderful Ground Cover or Companion Plant Because of the moisture-adding cycle described above, peat moss is a beautiful ground cover plant, and it's perfect as a companion plant near your vegetable, herb, or flower garden.
