Abstract
A collapsible terrarium assembly which is inflatable to assume a desired configuration for housing a potted plant or other article to be protectively enclosed. The structure is constituted by a disc-like base and a replaceable dome attachable thereto by means of a coupling ring which is adapted to snap onto a circular ridge formed on the base. The dome is formed by a flexible plastic envelope whose rim is provided with an annular skirt which is interposed between the coupling ring and the base to define a hermetically-sealed enclosure, the envelope including a valve for inflating the dome.
