Wardian Case




When we went to Reiman Gardens in December they had a few Wardian Cases planted and on display, I fell in love with them, so I did some looking around online and found one that I liked. I finished planting mine this past week, the first photo is mine, the second photo is one at Reimans. I would love to do a carnivorous plant display in the case but that will have to wait until it warms up so I can order the plants.

I like that! I'll bet your ferns do too. Very beautiful Jenny.

Yes, I think I have Facebook figured out. It really has been useful for finding classmates. Our 40th class reunion is this summer.

My 40th was 2 years ago.

I have not had time to get back to facebook, one of these days :).

Lovely, I've always loved terrariums but never had good luck with them.

Hi IGW,
Those Wardian Cases are so cool, and it's great you want to get a carnivorous plant! We had a Cobra Lily growing in a small case several years ago, but it didn't make it. But yours looks like a much better case than we had ... keep us posted on how it does!
