BOTTLE AND DISH GARDENS

    Dish garden
    Bottle gardens may be called as miniature greenhouse in which liliputian landscapes are planned. Any size of bottle, a jar, or a jug is suitable for gardening provided these are made of clear glass. Bottle gardening is a novel way of growing certain moisture-loving indoor plants, which may be otherwise impossible to grow in a dry house.
    Dish gardening refers to making gardens in dish like containers.
    Plants suitable for dish gardens are:
    Club moss (Lycopodium clavatum)
    Heart leaf philodendron (Philodendron scandens)
    Snake plant (Sansiviera trifasciata)
    Artillery plant (Pilea macrophylla)
    Asparagus fern (Asparagus plumosus)
    Begonia rex (Begonia rex-cultorum)
    Bird's nest fern (Asplenium nidus)
    Peperomia (Peperomia caperata)
