Some people want a garden, but can’t find a big enough area. There are many ways to overcome this, and one possibility is to plant in a glass container or a terrarium. If you plant herbs in a terrarium and grow them, it makes an attractive garden for indoors. Not having to water the herbs as often, because the moisture is retained in the enclosed environment, gives an advantage to this type of garden. You could use several small glass containers, or a large terrarium, like an aquarium usually used for fish. To be managed more easily, you will want to choose small herbs for this kind of garden.
