Rooted in traditional Japanese bonsai practices, kokedama translates to “moss ball” and replaces the standard plant pot with a living moss sphere. It can be displayed in several ways, whether placed on a decorative bowl or suspended with clear line or natural jute string for a striking floating effect.
✨ Each one is made by hand using recycled materials and locally sourced moss, combining botanical beauty with low-impact design.
🪴 Carefully packaged using recyclable and reused materials. Includes an illustrated care guide designed by local artists.
🪴 Display and Care Tips
☀️ Light: Bright, indirect light preferred
💧 Watering: Soak the moss ball when it feels dry and mist frequently for humidity
💦 Humidity: Moderate to high preferred
💡 Extra Tip: Rotate the kokedama every so often to promote even growth
🪴 Troubleshooting Tips
Yellow or dry moss may mean it needs more water. Try misting more or soaking more often.
Brown moss can be a sign of overwatering. Allow it to dry slightly between soaks.
Faded leaf patterns may indicate not enough light. Move it to a brighter spot out of direct sun.
Curled or drooping leaves may suggest low humidity or inconsistent watering. Increase misting and monitor moisture.

Care Guide for Maranta Kokedama Handmade in Scotland
☀️ Light
Scale: ☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Maranta Kokedama thrives in bright, indirect light. It’s perfect for spots where sunlight is filtered through a sheer curtain or diffused by a window. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves and fade the vibrant patterns.
💧 Water
Scale: 💧💧▫️ (Medium)
Keep the moss ball moist but not soggy. Soak it in water for 10-15 minutes when it feels dry to the touch, usually once a week, and then allow it to drain. Mist the leaves regularly to maintain humidity, mimicking the Maranta’s natural tropical environment.
🌡️️ Temperature
Scale: 🌡️️🌡️️▫️ (Average)
Maranta Kokedama enjoys average room temperatures of 18-24°C. Keep it away from draughts and sudden temperature changes which can stress the plant.
💦 Humidity
Scale: 💦💦💦 (High)
This plant loves humidity! A high humidity level mimicking a tropical environment helps keep the Maranta healthy. Consider placing it in a kitchen or bathroom if these rooms receive sufficient light.
☀️ Repotting (or substrate info for moss/creatures)
The Maranta Kokedama is encased in a sustainable moss ball, so traditional repotting isn’t needed. If the plant outgrows the moss ball, consider making a new, larger kokedama or transitioning it to a pot with well-draining soil.
🐾 Pet Friendliness
This product is pet-friendly! Maranta plants are safe for cats and dogs, so pet owners can rest easy placing this beautiful plant anywhere in the home.
✅🪴 Recommended locations at home
Place your Maranta Kokedama in living rooms, bedrooms, or offices where it can enjoy filtered light. It’s a stunning natural decor piece, especially when hung or placed in a high visibility area.
🌬️🪴 Air Purifying
Maranta plants are known for their air-purifying qualities, helping to filter indoor air and improve its quality.
