A 5 kg pack of black drainage stones for a functional base, clearly defined layers and a refined dark finish.
These black stones create the stable lower layer on which a planted terrarium can be organised. The spaces between the stones provide a lower area where excess water can collect, while their clean colour helps the construction remain legible through the glass.
The 5 kg pack can serve one larger build or several smaller arrangements, depending on the base diameter and the depth you choose. The same material can also be used selectively at the surface as a decorative finish in terrariums or plant pots.
Every layer remains visible in a glass terrarium. Black stone gives the base a clear visual structure and creates a clean contemporary contrast that emphasises foliage and pale materials, making the arrangement look considered before the final decorative details are added.
The stones form a stable first level for the remaining terrarium layers.
The shade acts as a clean backdrop and gives the whole composition a distinct character.
Place it low as a base or use it selectively at the surface as a decorative finish.
Prepare the material first and add each layer in small, controlled amounts.
Rinse the stones with clean water to remove transport dust, then allow excess water to drain away.
Distribute the stones across the bottom at a depth suited to the size and shape of the arrangement, without compacting them excessively.
Add a fine divider if required, followed by activated carbon where it is part of the plan, and finish with a substrate selected for the plants.
Four clear sections that remain visible instead of being hidden in FAQ accordions.
Pair the base with a complementary material or compare the alternative colour.
