| I would check out your local garden centre or nursery. They should have all of the supplies (soil, sand/gravel, charcoal) that you need at a relatively okay price, plus they have people you can talk to too! Checked out any of the following places? Bill's Garden Centre - 416-466-8283 http://billsgarden.sites.toronto.com/ 903 Pape Avenue, East York, ON M4K 3V1 Boncheff Greenhouses - 416-233-1800 382 Olivewood Road, Etobicoke, ON M8Z 2Z9 Humber Nurseries Ltd - 905-794-0555 8386 Hwy 50, Brampton, ON L6T 0A5 Angelo's Garden Centre - 905-669-9220 1801 Highway 7, Concord, ON L4K 1V4 Tumino's Garden Centre - 416-762-9644 271 Scarlett Road, York, ON M6N 4L1 Maybe give some of them a call and tell them what you want to do and see if they can help you out. If you have local resources, it totally beats having to purchase online. I found that at this time of the year, plant selection is quite limited at the garden centres. I did find a few smaller 2" plants, but they are few and probably not very good for small terrariums ('cept I don't know a lot about plants. I just started too ^_^ ). You guys are lucky in big Toronto, so many garden centers. We've only got a handful (that I know of) here in Calgary. Post back to let us know what you find! Peace outside, C |
