Kokedama Birds Nest Fern

Kokedama is a traditional Japanese art form where the plant's root system is wrapped in moss and bound with string, creating a sculptural, soil-free ball. It replaces a traditional plastic or ceramic pot, allowing you to display the fern on the included drain dish or even suspend it.

Because the roots are wrapped in moss, you should water your fern by submerging the moss ball in a bowl of room-temperature water for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until it feels heavy and saturated. Allow it to drain thoroughly before placing it back on its dish to prevent water from pooling.

This fern thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate fronds, or in deep shade, which will slow its growth and cause the foliage to lose its vibrant green color.

No, the Birds Nest Fern is not considered pet-safe. It is best to keep this plant in a location that is inaccessible to curious cats or dogs.

The moss ball is relatively low-maintenance, but you should keep an eye on the moisture levels. If the moss begins to look dry or light brown, it is a sign that the plant needs a thorough soaking.
