An average terrarium is a bit of a funny thing to say because a terrarium is in itself not average! It goes beyond the average potted plant in that it is an arrangement of plants and it is often in a container that is extraordinary or even striking and dramatic. But if we take the whole hobby of terrariums and think of terrariums as the norm we can go even a bit beyond this and go for exotic terrariums. These are terrariums that have unusual plants like carnivorous plants. Here is a selection of readily available exotic terrariums and supplies.

Dragon's Lair Create a dark and remote lair for your mythical fire-breathing dragon. In the Dragon's Lair, Dragon Trees sprout from white dragons' eggs to form sword-like leaves.

Your lair will sprout in weeks and last for years.
