Step 1
Not all kinds of plants are suitable for miniature garden, you'll have to select the plants carefully. Here's a list of plants suitable for mini gardens 1) Dwarf trees, 2)Succulent plants, 3)Preserved moss, 4)Miniature ivy, 5)Baby tears etc.
Step 2
These are some succulent plants and moss plants I've collected for my miniature garden.
Step 3
These are a few things I've made to decorate the garden. You can find the tutorials of making most of them among my how-to tutorials in this website.
Step 4
Soil mix is a must for miniature garden. Soil mix is good but organic potting soil is considered as the best for mini gardens. I filled the whole pot with organic soil mix. The soil mix was dark, so I filled the top of the soil mix with a layer of sand (the sand layer is less than an inch).
Step 5
Do not push or smash the plants into the soil, Make a hole in the soil before planting each plants.
Step 6
I planted the dwarf tree first, then added 3 small flat concrete pieces to place the cabin, furniture. Added the rest of the decors and plants one by one. Enjoy!
