I was gifted some long, narrow, tempered glass shelves a few months ago and decided to turn them into shallow mossariums. This one is displayed in my work office on a long conference room table, where it glows beautifully when the room is not in use and the lights are off. These photos are from October, and since then roughly 50% of the substrate has been covered with moss. I suspect we'll have a dense carpet in another month or two.

Is it too late for posting fall colors?

Ever grabbed a jar and thought "🤔 this would make a cool terrarium!" Only to have it turn into a moldy, funky mess? Don't give up, dump it out and start over! I haven't been able to pinpoint the exact trigger that makes these survive, but sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. This one in particular has been going strong for over six months!

Although this terrarium is approaching a year old and I absolutely LOVE it, moss refuses to grow in it. I guess I'll pat...

Although this terrarium is approaching a year old and I absolutely LOVE it, moss refuses to grow in it. I guess I'll patiently wait for the creeping fig to take over.

As the weather in Phoenix starts to cool off, a lot of my social media time has been pushed off for hikes, other outdoor activities, selling my planty creations at local plant swaps, and getting my business/website up and running. I'm still around, just prioritizing some other things for a little while 😁

I hope everyone had a wonderful September and enjoys the upcoming spooky season 🎃

Showing off a DIY terrarium misting system I made - it was surprisingly easy to design and print the brackets. Oddly enough the hardest part was finding the hose fittings to connect the 1/4" rigid mist tubing to the 3/8" hose barb of the pump.

Well, the time has come to change things up a bit! What was formerly 'Curiosity Untethered' is now Curiously Rooted, and I'm now a small business owner! I've been successful selling my products locally and I'm thrilled to take the next step - selling online!

I'm still working on the website, but expect to see some more news from me in the next few weeks. The offerings will be incredible! (But that also means it takes time to get all the listings set up)

Expect to see houseplants, terrarium plants, terrariums, DIY terrarium kits, 3D-printed plant/terrarium accessories, hardscape, and plenty more! Looking forward to hearing your feedback on it all 🥳

I don't know why, but I get so excited when I find a new type of mushroom in one of my terrariums! And the way these water droplets covered these two was just breathtaking

Two gorgeous Hoya blooms from last week. Yes, I broke one off while playing with it and yes, it felt horrible. Thankfull...

Two gorgeous Hoya blooms from last week. Yes, I broke one off while playing with it and yes, it felt horrible. Thankfully the same plant had multiple blooms so I didn't feel too bad about it 😅 (also it wasn't the fuzzy one 🙌)
