large glass iced tea dispenser with tops. Fill the bottom 2-3 inches deep with marbles, glass beads or take a spontaneous trip to Glass Beach in Mendocino and gather your ocean washed pieces of glass for a perfect touch and a fun little summer excursion! Then you’ll want to use 3 inches of lightweight potting soil for a planting base. Plant your selections gently cover- ing all the roots. Long handled tea spoons work well for this. Explore Bird’s-Nest Fern (Asplenium ni- dus), Rabbit’s Foot Fern (Davallia species), Button and Maidenhair ferns. Baby’s tears (Pilea depressa) is delicate creeper with teeny-tiny round green leaves), Nerve plant (Fittonia verschaffeltii) has car- mine traceries on the deep green leaves and some of the hundred varieties of miniature ivies are per- fect too. You decide! Select and choose your varieties of plants to create this perfect miniature world. Keep these humidity-loving hotties out of direct sun but place your tall jarful in a bright spot inside and they will last for years. Enjoy this little paradise in a jar. Sigh!
