Terrariums are the smallest greenhouses you can buy for indoor use, so perfect for taking care of your smallest house plants. The best news is, it's only £5! This simple house plant idea will be perfect for styling your houseplant collection into a stunning display.
You could nestle it among books and candles on your best IKEA shelves, display it on the kitchen windowsill or style it on a hallway side table. It would work equally well on the top of your best radiator cover or even in the bathroom to welcome in some greenery.
The glass terrarium has a white metal frame and holds three small succulents. We love its pitched roof that can be held open with hooks on a warm day just like a larger greenhouse. You can also pair it with a mini watering can - cute and functional, and the combo is sure to elevate your plant game.
When Primark posted a shot of the terrarium on Instagram, the post quickly drummed up over 7,000 likes and attracted comments from admiring house plant fans.
