Burgundy Shamrocks & Unicorns Under Glass. For the Love of Glass Covered Terrariums.





Oxalis 'Burgundy' 
or 
Burgundy Shamrock

We purchased this Burgundy Shamrock plant 
from one of our local greenhouses. 
and
we fell in love with it instantly.




This plant's little heart shaped leaves and vibrant colors, 
decorated with tiny little yellow flowers, 
makes it even more of a joy to watch grow.

  

Many of our glass covered plant terrariums 
have a piece of the this sweet plant in them, 
as we were happily surprised how well they thrive under glass.



This adorable little plant requires light sun, 
and does well by a lit window.


This terrarium is home to our sweet little Unicorn.




This shamrock plant started out with a 2 inch cutting, 
and has grown as high as the glass cloche lid in just over 3 months.




It provides the perfect shelter with a grassy field of Club Moss 
for this miniature white Unicorn to wander about.




Illuminated at nightfall; 
creating a dreamy wonderland under glass.

Seeing yourself through the eyes of nature.





Designed in photoshop elements using a profile image of my
daughter with accent layers of plant, flowers and tree images to
create a multiple exposure effect.

Played endlessly with different 
hues, saturation, brightness and contrast;
creating many different versions. 

This final edit was one of my favorite.
