🌏 The Rise of Terrarium Culture in Australia & Southeast Asia

Danny Pham

Terrariums are blooming beyond hobby shelves—they’ve become a lifestyle symbol. In Australia and Southeast Asia, the trend has evolved from niche decor to a cultural movement.

📈 Why Is It Growing?
Australia – Eco-conscious urbanites love low-maintenance green decor. Terrariums offer greenery for small apartments and align with the “green home” trend.
Southeast Asia – In tropical climates, humidity-loving plants like mosses and ferns thrive, making closed terrariums ideal. DIY terrarium bars and workshops are booming, especially in cities like Bangkok, Singapore, and Ho Chi Minh.

🌿 Popular Preferences
AU: Minimalist moss-scapes, mixed glassware, native ferns
SEA: Lush, high-humidity micro-ecosystems with exotic plants

💬 Cultural Insights
• Terrariums are often gifted during New Year or Lunar events in Southeast Asia.
• In Australia, terrariums are used as mindfulness decor or workspace enhancers.
