A well-maintained terrarium is not only beautiful to look at, but also a living ecosystem that requires some care. In this blog, you’ll discover the truly essential tools for building and maintaining a sustainable plant terrarium. From tweezers to sprayers – with the right tools, you can work cleaner, more precisely, and with more joy. Perfect for beginners and plant lovers without green thumbs.

1. Terrarium tweezers: your extended green fingers

Use tweezers to place plants neatly, keep moss in place, or remove old leaves. With long tweezers, you can work precisely even in the narrowest bottles without causing damage. This is the go-to tool for precision work. We also have a special terrarium claw. The extendable pick-up claw is ideal for collecting leaves and stones.

2. Terrarium scissors: trimming in tricky spots

To keep your plants healthy and compact, regular pruning is essential. A special terrarium scissor makes it easy to reach and remove hard-to-reach leaves without damaging other plants.

3. Terrarium rake & shovel: compact & powerful

The toolset with rake and shovel, featuring extendable handles, is perfect for creating or maintaining your terrarium. The slim design lets you work neatly through narrow openings. Ideal for terrariums and precision work!

4. Terrarium funnel: clean work with soil and pebbles

Nothing is more annoying than potting soil along the edges of your glass jar. A terrarium funnel lets you work cleanly and efficiently. Perfect for filling or refilling your terrarium.

5. Water sprayer: targeted watering

Overwatering is the biggest enemy of a closed terrarium. A plant sprayer lets you water the roots directly without disturbing the whole ecosystem. This prevents mold and keeps the balance.

6. Terrarium Brush: fresh & clean in no time

This extra-long terrarium brush keeps your plants and the glass dust-free and sparkling. Perfect for brushing soil off leaves or cleaning the inside of your terrarium.

Sustainable care = longer enjoyment

A sustainable terrarium starts with the right tools. With a basic set of tools, you not only extend the life of your plants, but you also work more cleanly and with greater joy. And let’s face it: a well-cared-for terrarium is the ultimate showpiece in your interior!
