Know before you buy
The best method is to submerge the moss ball in a bowl of water for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until it feels heavy and saturated. Gently squeeze out any excess water before placing it back on its display surface.
While the Kokedama is a self-contained living sculpture, you should place it on a waterproof saucer or decorative tray to protect your furniture from moisture and soil runoff.
The Inch Plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct, harsh sunlight, which can scorch the leaves, or in very dark corners, which may cause the plant to lose its vibrant color.
Check the weight of the moss ball; when it feels significantly lighter than usual, it is time for a soak. You can also touch the moss to see if it feels dry or brittle to the touch.
The Kokedama is versatile and can be displayed either sitting on a flat surface or suspended using a decorative string or macramé hanger. Ensure your hanging hardware is secure and can support the weight of the damp moss ball.
