Kokedamas, el arte de tener plantas sin macetas

An introductory workshop on kokedama, a Japanese technique of growing plants on a ball of moss instead of in a pot. It covers the origins of the technique and basic care, and each person makes their own piece to take home.

The activity introduces the kokedama, a traditional Japanese way of growing plants by wrapping their roots in a ball of moss. In this introductory workshop, the origins of the technique are first reviewed, along with the care requirements of a plant mounted in this way.

Afterwards, each participant creates their own specimen step by step, a small plant ecosystem on top of the moss ball. The materials are included in the activity and no previous experience is needed, so the session is designed for anyone who wants to start from scratch and for those curious about indoor plants.

The workshop takes place at Planthae Gabinete Botánico, in Madrid. The space is accessible for people with reduced mobility.
