Review
"Maria Colletti is no ordinary gardener. Instead, her green designs are small and portable. Hers is the domain of the terrarium--she creates miniature landscapes thriving in a world of glass, sunlight and minimal intervention. Known as the "terrarium savant" by a legion of fans, she has cultivated both expertise and a following that, like her creations, has grown organically with time." - Edible Manhattan
"Other books on this subject verge into kitsch, with authors ornamenting their terrariums with miniature people, furnishings, and animals, but Colletti happily avoids this detour and focuses purely on plants"

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful photos and even more beautiful terrariums
Beautiful photos and even more beautiful terrariums. If you love gazing at indoor plants, terrariums and room placement, this would be a great book for you. I have used it as a blueprint for terrarium planting as well as a resource for the terrarium plants.Very thoughtful and entertaining reading.This is a favorite terrarium book of mine!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great guide.
Good price, good shipping time, good packaging,and great info. The book is a pretty good overview. It is written more like a lady having a conversation with you when you come over for tea and talk about hobbies. The information is like a journey of this ladies experience with terrariums then an actual informational book on terrariums. There is some info and she does a good job explaining the process but the whole thing could of been condensed into a pamphlet if you just broke down the real information. Still looking for a good terrarium book.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good book with lots of design ideas.
Good book, mostly focused on design concepts. I was looking for something more about the botanical science of small enclosed terrariums.That said, great photography, lovely layout, and lots of ideas for building attractive gardens.
