Glass Jar Terrariums & Supplies

A closed glass jar creates a sealed, humid environment that recycles moisture through condensation and evaporation, reducing watering needs while protecting plants from dry indoor air. The glass also transmits light for photosynthesis while providing a stable, contained ecosystem that showcases moss, succulents, or tropical plants.

Terrarium jars are typically made from soda-lime or borosilicate glass. Soda-lime glass is cost-effective and widely used for decorative jars, while borosilicate offers a low thermal-expansion coefficient and higher thermal-shock resistance, making it suitable for jars exposed to temperature changes or occasional cleaning with warm water.
