🪴🪴I’ve been working on something new, something I haven’t tried before until now, just in time for Mother’s Day, I’m introducing a special collection of smaller kokedama, made in a more traditional Japanese style, with the moss fully on the outside of the ball. Inside, a bulb of beautiful spring flowers is waiting to bloom.

Did you know that in traditional Japanese kokedama, the moss isn’t just for decoration? It plays a key role in protecting the plant’s roots and helping to retain moisture.

Here’s a sneak peek at one of my recent creations, more to come soon! Keep an eye out for the full collection. 🌿✨ 🪴🪴

The spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum) is a popular, low-maintenance houseplant known for its long, arching green leaves with white stripes. It produces small offshoots, or “spiderettes,” that dangle from the mother plant, giving it a cascading appearance. Spider plants are excellent air purifiers, thrive in a variety of conditions, and are easy to propagate, making them a great choice for beginners.

Spider Plant – Easy-Care Houseplant You Need! 🪴
✅ Thrives in bright, indirect light
✅ Water when the top inch of soil is dry – Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot
✅ Prefers moderate humidity but adapts well to most indoor environments
✅ Removes toxins like formaldehyde – a natural air-purifier!
✅ Safe for pets unlike many other houseplants!
✅ Fast-growing – Repot when roots become overcrowded!
✅ Brown leaf tips? It may be caused by fluoride in tap water
💡 Pro Tip: Spider plants love to produce "babies" (pups)! Snip them off and place in water to propagate.
