Mary,

I don't know if anyone grows this out of a terrarium but I've had mine in a big terrarium for 2 years or longer. It is still in the original container (2 inch square) so I water it every few weeks and let the soil around it alone. I have at times not watered it for a couple of months and the leaves get pretty droopy but have always recovered after a good watering. It has bloomed many times, leaves eventually yellow and dry up but there are always some good size leaves on it. I should move it to a bigger container but for now I'm happy with its growth.
