'ship in a bottle' nature style

[ilovepets]

here are the pics from last year new ones at the bottom

so in our woods there are a lot of glass bottles and trash from a loooong time ago. well a few years ago my brother found a bunch of these bottles and put them in a pile. i went up in the woods and looked at these bottles and found some cool stuff! some one i know had one that she found and i always said 'wow that would be cool to have' and now i have one!

this was the best one, which has died half off


inside:


and these are the insides of the others (they make me think of swamp areas )
this one should start to fill with moss next year


a swamp looking one


this one reminds me of the amazon with all the moss on the trees. my favorite one!!! but sadly it broke off the side of he bottle and is nothing now


and this one had a spider web in it

the new pics

i have moved some around so hopefully they grow some moss
here are the ones that made it through the winter!!! (and look good)

after looking at the shape, i think this is the swamp one from above! it grew a lot




same as the first but in the shade


and for the record, some other nature/sunrise pic i took






at dusk




there are many more but.... that would take a while to post them all

That's pretty cool. It's amazing sometimes where things manage to grow, a nice find

That's so cool! I've always wanted to grow my own moss garden. Love the sunrise pics as well.

about 4 decades ago, I used to make terrariums in 5 gallon glass water jugs--they were really neat, low maintenance, and all my friends wanted them.
