5 Tips for Healthy Kokedama
Making Kokedama or Japanese moss balls, is a great way to enjoy a tactile garden craft. Traditionally placed in a hanging garden, Kokedama brings a connection or mindfulness through creativity. Whether you are a plant lover or a crafting queen you will achieve stunning results with our Krystalis method.
With many suitable plants to choose from your beautiful moss balls will stay healthy and last for a long time with these great kokedama care tips.
1. Use suitable, hardy plants such as Succulents, Ivy, Coleus, Anthuriums, Peace lily, Hypo Estes and Kalanchoe.
2. Allow maximum airflow around the Kokedama ball and allow to dry between watering.
3. Place your Kokedama in a position suitable to the plants needs. I.e., filtered light or bright sunlight.
4. Do not soak the Kokedama ball. Fill the sink with 1-2cm of water and allow to draw up from the bottom for 10 minutes only.
5. Fertilize with a liquid seaweed solution once per month as per watering method.
*Remember* Kokedama is a natural biodegradable option for encasing your favourite plants and will break down over time. This just means you will have more fun upgrading and re-stringing them with the latest colours and styles. For more creative ideas and advice please visit us online at our website Krystalis.com.au
