They can be grown as houseplants or in an outdoor bog garden. With the right light, water, and soil, these can be grown big enough to eat you out of house and home!

It's Plants on Plants for this fun project! Many plants in your collection may already be epiphytes without you knowing! These tree-dwellers are some of the easiest care in a group because of their low water needs. They also grow underneath the tree canopy, without direct light. We will show the unique features of the epiphytic plants by attaching them to a plank of wood. These pieces are lightweight enough to be hung on walls or trellises. Enjoy one of the most fascinating plant behaviors in your own home!

Included in ticket: (9" x 10.5") wooden plank, your choice of staghorn fern or hoya plant, sphagnum moss, decorative moss, and attaching materials. 

Imagine a distant land full of sand. It may be far, far away from Fargo, but now you can take that oasis in your hand. Create your own desert biome in this edition of Terrarium Tuesday. With two succulents and a hanging globe, this arid regional piece can be a reminder of warmer days.
