Two small plants that thrive under glass, plus the mix to grow them in.
Peperomia prostrata, the string of turtles, trails tiny patterned leaves over the soil, and Actiniopteris australis is a miniature fern with fans of fine fronds that look like little palms. Together they give a terrarium texture at two levels, low and trailing below with a soft upright fern above.
Both enjoy steady humidity and soil that stays lightly moist. Simply Terrarium's tropical mix is made for exactly that, holding moisture without getting soggy, so you can plant them straight into a jar, cloche or open terrarium.

We always aim to make sure our customers love our products, but if you do need to return an order within 14 days of purchase (not including plants*), or any items are damaged, we’re happy to help. Just email us directly at hello@growtropicals.com, and we’ll take you through the process.
Please note: we cannot be held liable for any packaging costs should the original packaging be discarded.
*Unfortunately we cannot accept returns of undamaged plants as these are perishable items and are not saleable upon return. If a plant is damaged, we will compensate for this as per our live arrival guarantee.
When placing your order, you can choose from three dispatch speeds to suit your needs: Economy (prepared and shipped within 4-5 days), Standard (3-5 days), or Express (dispatched the very next day). Please keep in mind that "dispatch" refers to the time it takes our team to prepare and pack your items before handing them over to the courier, not the total delivery time.
Shipping costs are based on your total order value and will be calculated at checkout, with free shipping automatically applied to all orders over £60. For a full breakdown of shipping prices see our Help Centre.
Additionally, to protect the health and quality of our live plants, orders containing plants are exclusively shipped Monday through Thursday. This careful scheduling prevents your plants from being stuck in a dark shipping depot over the weekend, ensuring they arrive at your door vibrant and healthy.
We could not find a close match for that. Ask us directly and a real plant person will reply.

Good for your home - and the planet.
Ordered two 8cm pots, planning to combine them into one big one. There was no need. One was plenty, full and lush.
So surprised at the quality of my plant! Very healthy and so much growth on the crown. Lots of new growth can tell the plant has received excellent care.
I’ve had to be so careful with this plant because more ‘turtles’ fall off at the slightest nudge! It’s a lovely plant and I can’t wait to get it to it’s hanging pot, so that it can get on with growing bigger :relaxed:️
Love love love her so much! :heart_eyes: Her patterns are so cute, but she is delicate so be careful. She arrived quickly and safely, and looks amazing on my desk. Looking forward to adding to my small collection of plant babies soon!
Very pretty but very delicate. This cute little fern had been wrapped really carefully for shipping and arrived in perfect condition thanks. Its had a good start in life. . . just hope I can keep the little diva alive n thriving. :sweat_smile:
These bags of formulated substrate are great for repotting my young houseplants into once they've outgrown their baby pots. Saves me buying individual substrate ingredients and my plants all seem healthy and happy with it so far.
This one unfortunately didn’t survive the transport, but it’s a sensitive one and winter. Otherwise beautiful plant and hope to save it eventually
Beautiful quality plants shipped quickly and efficiently with excellent customer service - couldn't ask for more really!
Lovely plant. Great quality. Did not expect those little turtles to be so fragile.
I'm in awe of how pretty this plant actually is, arrived well packaged and now enjoying its life in the house!
This plant is a must have!
I ordered a string of turtles plant, it's very cute!
Also a nice sturdy ceramic pot which looks fab!
It was delivered very safely, well packaged and included a bag of soil for potting up immediately.
I'm loving him already!
Lovely plants for our terrarium . Arrived well packaged in excellent condition. Very happy with my purchase.
Some casualties in transit, but to be expected. Healthy plant & well packaged
The plant looked beautiful when it arrived, but unfortunately, it hasn’t lasted. All the leaves have now fallen off, leaving nothing but the soil in the pot. Very disappointing,
