Kokedamas are an ancient form of Japanese Bonsai that dates to around 1600 AD. These living planters are made with moss, soil, twine, and a plant. They have a sunny disposition and are low maintenance.

Kokedama plants come with either a Tray for Basic Planter, Grey Patina or Tray for Basic Planter, White Patina. They also pair well with our Wrought Iron Planter Stand in Small, sold separately here as well as our Granite Stands and Goblet Terra Cotta Planters.

What is a Ficus Bonsai Kokedama?

A Ficus Bonsai Kokedama is a unique and captivating plant arrangement that marries the ancient art of bonsai with the natural charm of a moss ball. The term “kokedama” translates to “ball of moss” in Japanese, and it involves wrapping a plant’s roots in a ball of moss, creating a self-sustaining ecosystem. In this case, the plant used is a Ficus bonsai, a member of the fig family known for its resilience and beauty. The Ficus bonsai is meticulously encased in a moss ball, resulting in a stunning and low-maintenance display that can enhance any indoor or outdoor setting. This combination not only adds a touch of nature to your space but also embodies the elegance of bonsai kokedama.
