Exoterra mehikasvi aavikkokasvi 10.5x10.5x15CM

An artificial plant for a desert terrarium, 10.5 × 10.5 × 15 cm.

The jade plant is a thick-leaved succulent that grows in the dry regions of South Africa. The rounded leaves and sturdy trunk suit desert and steppe terrariums.

An artificial plant needs no light, water or nutrients, so it works in the parts of the terrarium where a live plant would not survive – under a basking lamp or in a dark corner. In a quarantine terrarium, where the floor is kept bare and easy to clean, it is often the only option.

The plant is easy to wash and disinfect and can be combined with live plants. It gives the animal cover and hiding places, which reduces stress.
