Marimo Moss Ball Light Bulb Terrarium

Found only in lakes in Iceland, Scotland, Japan and Estonia, marimo are tiny balls of algae that get swirled by the currents into living pompoms. This marimo terrarium, sold by Uncommon Goods, is made from a recycled light bulb that encloses the adorable moss in its own Lilliputian ecosystem, ideal for display on desks or coffee tables. The portable plant ball is very much alive and needs ample light and a change of water every week or so. Here you can find more gifts for science geeks.
