bottle garden

Sealed plant container

A bottle garden is a miniature garden planted inside a glass container—typically a large bottle, carboy, or terrarium.

The enclosed environment creates a self-sustaining ecosystem where moisture recycles through condensation: She started a bottle garden in an old demijohn and hasn't watered it in three years.

The technique suits ferns, mosses, and other plants that thrive in humid conditions.
