Bottle Garden Workshop "Ino's Garden".
A bottle garden is a small, enclosed plant world in a glass, called a hermetosphere. Since the moisture stays in the glass, it only needs a tiny amount of water once a year.
In the bottle garden workshop, you can plant your own little bubble with plants and moss. You will learn how a bottle garden works, which plants are suitable for it and how they get into the glass. The special tools you need will be provided for the workshop.
The founder and owner of Green Bubble is Mariska Beirne, a historian. Her fascination with the bottle garden also lies in its history. The inventor of the terrarium is considered to be botanist Nathanael Ward, who tinkered with a design in London in 1829 that would go down in history as the Ward Box. His portable greenhouses in various sizes soon brought exotic plants - including tea plants - from tropical regions to foggy London.
But even without history, the delicate little plants in the hermetospheres are fascinating - you too are invited to create one of these little worlds in a jar and take it home as a souvenir.
