Kokedama Workshop: Create Your Own Japanese Moss Ball

Discover the wonderfully tactile art of Kokedama in this hands-on botanical workshop with Plant Homewares. Kokedama transforms a living plant into a sculptural botanical feature, using its growing medium, moss and binding techniques to create the distinctive moss-ball form. During this relaxed two-hour workshop, you'll create your own Kokedama from start to finish while learning the horticultural principles behind keeping it healthy.
