Terrariums
Saw a beautiful terrarium on the Today show with little ferns and baby tears. Looked pretty. I suggest using rosemary and creeping thyme and onion for a spike for interest and variety of levels. Rosemary can be shaped and clipped for use in various recipes (If you have one, send it in). Creeping thyme has beautiful blossoms and is great in stuffings. Onion is great clipped and chopped in scrambled eggs, etc. It is a great starter, looks pretty in a class container, is useful and edible, keeps the air smelling great, and does not need any bugs or bees for fertilizing.

Terrariums are nice, but usually pretty small. Can you really grow enough edible s in one to make it worthwhile, or are we talking about just a mouthful or two?
Terrariums are meant to accent the basic dish, not provide a full meal. Just a mouthful or two will add interest. and the greens will add needed vitamins.
