Binny Botanics Kokedama Moss Ball – Zamioculcas Zamiifolia

Discover the art of traditional Japanese bonsai with the Binny Botanics Kokedama Moss Ball, featuring the resilient and elegant Zamioculcas Zamiifolia. Kokedama, which translates to “moss ball” in Japanese, is a centuries-old practice from the Edo era (c. 1600) where the plant’s roots are encased in a ball of soil, wrapped in moss, and secured with twine. This unique form of bonsai art not only adds a touch of nature to your living space but also serves as a living sculpture, perfect for both modern and traditional interiors.

Each Kokedama Moss Ball is meticulously handcrafted, ensuring that every piece is a unique work of art. The Zamioculcas Zamiifolia, commonly known as the ZZ Plant, is an excellent choice for this type of cultivation due to its hardy nature and minimal care requirements. Its dark green, glossy leaves create a striking contrast against the natural moss, making it an eye-catching addition to any room.

Care Instructions:

Light: The ZZ Plant thrives in medium to bright indirect light. However, it can also tolerate lower light conditions, making it versatile for various indoor settings. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight as this can scorch the leaves and dry out the moss ball.

Watering: The key to maintaining a healthy Kokedama is proper watering. When the moss feels nearly dry to the touch or the ball feels light, it’s time to water. Submerge the entire moss ball in room temperature water for 20-30 minutes, allowing it to fully absorb moisture. After soaking, gently squeeze out any excess water and let it drain. Reduce watering frequency during the winter months when the plant’s growth slows down. It’s normal for the moss to brown over time, adding to the rustic aesthetic of the Kokedama.

Location: Place your Kokedama in a bright, semi-lit area away from direct sunlight and drafts. It can be displayed on a windowsill, desk, or shelf, or hung using the attached fishing line loop. The compact size and versatile display options make it perfect for any room, adding a natural touch to your decor.

Maintenance Tips:

• Water your Kokedama once a week. During hotter months, consider watering twice a week to prevent the plant from drying out.
• For optimal care, research the specific needs of your plant species as some may have unique requirements.
• To maintain its shape and appearance, gently prune any yellowing leaves and rotate the Kokedama periodically to ensure even light exposure.
