Specifications
The fittonia owes its nickname "mosaic plant" to its finely veined leaves. A small, compact plant suited to terrariums. The varieties differ only in the colour and pattern of the leaves: light and water needs are the same for all of them.

Questions
Ask a questionDoes this fittonia work in a closed terrarium?
Yes, very well: the constant humidity of a closed container suits it particularly well, and it is actually the variety we use in our open terrarium kits.
Why do its leaves droop?
Fittonia wilts quickly as soon as the substrate dries out, but it generally perks back up after watering.
Make it, step by step.
