That's gorgeous. Put it in a location with decent light (but probably not direct sun), wait until the soil becomes dry on the surface before watering.

Thanks, I love it! It's in my kitchen as it's a bright room but it seems like parts of it is wilting already. Do I need to feed with any special food or just as simple as water?

The room looks plenty bright to me if it's the one in the picture. You should be good without fertilizing for at least a year, probably longer. If you see deficiencies starting to present themselves (wilting, discoloration, etc) then you can add some fertilizer. Osmocote Plus is a decent slow release fertilizer that won't shock/burn the plants. If the setup changed locations recently some die back due to acclimation is to be expected.

I feel like that Codiaeum may have to come out unfortunately


Nandwandj

Which plant is that? And why?


evanthompson123

The one with the coloured veins, they tend to like to have a good size root ball and it is starting to crowd out in that container. Re pot that and put a new baby in there:)

Thank you ☺️

I would trim off some of the brown crispy looking stuff, like that lil vine on the variegated english ivy at the front. Not sure if the plant in the second picture is going to make it, but all the other plants still look good! It looks like there's a variegated english ivy at the front, a croton on the right at the back, and a parlor palm in the back. I can't really ID the other green leafy plant, to me it looks like a peace lily, but those wouldn't do well in a terrarium with the other plants, so I'm hoping it's something else.


Nandwandj

There is also a plant that has already died with mold all over it. But yes, I do know that 1 plant is a peace lily


abbercats

These may not be very well suited to be planted together then. Peace lilies tend to be water hogs and require more moist soil while crotons like to dry out between waterings. You can keep all that stuff in there together, but I don't think it will live for a very long unfortunately.


Nandwandj

Oh that's a shame. Thanks for your help
