Kokedama 苔玉
Ko-Ke-Da-Mah is a Japanese gardening technique that originated from bonsai. The plant is placed into a ball of soil, then covered in moss and secured with string, making it self-contained and doing away with pots all together. It is a minimal plant aesthetic that showcases the plant and its personality.
About Of Soil and Moss
Of Soil and Moss is a plant shop specializing in the art of Kokedama.
I saw a Kokedama once at a Japanese plant shop and was filled with wonder and so purchased one. I was fascinated with how this plant was beautiful yet so simple and minimal. I was so excited about this technique of keeping plants that I decided to Kokedama most of my plants at home. To my surprise they all thrived and are still doing great years later.
I have now been practicing the art of Kokedama for eight years and I am still just as excited and curious about the process as I was when I first started. I now experiment with different plants, soil composition and moss varieties. Every plant is unique and hand crafted at the studio.
