Inspired
Okay, Machete inspired me. Here is my first attempt. I went out this weekend and bought a candle lamp and made it waterproof. I bought some wood and plants from Hawiian Botanicals including one carnivorous, one jewel orchid and two bromilliad and awaiting a panel of LED lights from E-bay. Will probably add a little computer fan later.
I'm sure I have made a million errors but I can already tell, I'm going to like this hobby. I posted some pics on photobucket but I can't seem to link them. http://i442.photobucket.com/albums/q...h/IMG_0042.jpg http://i442.photobucket.com/albums/q...h/IMG_0036.jpg http://i442.photobucket.com/albums/q...h/IMG_0035.jpg

i have about 20 orchids in an orchid room aka my shed, the one i think is best for a terrerium is the 'Jewel Orchid' ludisia discolour, they have velvety purple leaves with gold or red veins.
Alot of orchids dont do well in terreriums as they grow in treetop jungles and dont like stagnent air and need high airflow with high hummidity. justusfish i cant see your jewel orchid where did you hide it? Phaph type orchids grow well in swampy conditions as well as phrag's they are both lady slipper orchids.

Thats a awsome little terrarium. did you get that candle holder at super store?
jewel orchids are awsome Hawiian Botanicals only had one huge plant last time i was there and i didnt want to take a chance with a un rotted cutting.. i havent been back there because gus is to much... wish i had a place like that closer to me.... any ways to solve the lack of air flow i just put a small pc fan in my terrariums just to keep a bit of air movment and my chids seem to really like it there all growing and flower. few shots of my most resent flowering.. lasted about 2 weeks.. now its got another comin in shortly.

Jewel orchid
Here is the orchid. It's at the bottom. I have three in there. They're just shy.
