Succulent Terrarium Workshop — Redfern
Sydney's most loved terrarium studio. Over 10 years of teaching. 5.0 stars.
Some plants don't need much. Just the right vessel, the right stones, and a little intention.
In this one-hour workshop at Merchant & Green's Redfern studio, you'll create a sculptural succulent landscape — open, architectural, and beautifully low maintenance. Working with premium succulents hand-selected for form and texture, you'll layer drainage, arrange plants, and style your desert garden using natural stones and moss.
The result is something minimal, considered, and genuinely long-lasting. Succulents thrive on neglect — yours will look beautiful on a shelf, desk, or windowsill for years.
What You'll Learn
Why succulents thrive in open vessels — and how to set them up for success
How to layer drainage and soil for long-term plant health
How to arrange plants and stones for visual balance and proportion
How to care for your terrarium after the class

The Experience
Merchant & Green is a working florist and plant studio — not a craft classroom. You'll work inside our light-filled Redfern space, surrounded by fresh flowers and premium plants, guided by florists who work with botanicals every day.
It's the difference between a DIY kit and a genuinely refined creative experience.
