Do you have a terrarium?

I've wanted one for ages. I was going to try and make my own but impulsively bought one from Waitrose today. It's very pretty! There's no moisture on the glass though - should there be? I've just briefly taken the lid off to straighten a bent leaf and it felt warm inside. I hope I haven't upset the balance by doing so. It's on a shelf nearish the window so shouldn't get any direct light but is in a sunny spot. What do I need to know?

It will be fine, I've had loads of the years and was given a Waitrose one earlier this year (B+M +M+S have some nice ones too)
They basically look after themselves , but you can Google how to look after them.

I have a Waitrose one - glass jar with a cork lid. I popped it on the bathroom shelf and haven’t touched it since. Moisturiser appeared on the inside of the jar after a short while and the plants do seem to be getting bigger after several months
