This workshop creates traditional Japanese Moss Balls (Japanese: Kokedama 苔玉) which are balls of soil that are covered in moss and hold a live plant. Kokedama is easy to enjoy and decorate in your space as a hanging, floating plant to brighten up your space. Workshop includes all materials of Kokedama which you will make 2 Kokedama and take home at the end of the session. In this workshop also learn how to choose the plants and how to take care of them. The workshop will be instructed by a horticulturalist and floral designer with EunYoung Sebazco.
