Yes, we proudly offer local delivery services within the greater Charleston, WV area. This ensures your newly acquired miniature ecosystem arrives safely and precisely as intended, ready to enhance your space.
While many closed terrariums (which are sealed and self-sustaining) feature moss, a 'mossarium' is specifically designed to showcase the diverse beauty of different species of moss as its primary botanical feature. Mossariums create a lush, vibrant green carpet, often with minimal additional plant life, emphasizing the intricate textures and forms of moss. Closed terrariums, however, can contain a wider variety of small plants. Both offer unique aesthetic and ecological benefits.
