Foxtail Fern Kokedama — Handmade Japanese Moss Ball Planter
A living sculpture for your shelf, table, or sunny windowsill. Each foxtail fern kokedama is hand-wrapped in our Tennessee studio using preserved moss, natural twine, and a healthy, nursery-grown Asparagus densiflorus 'Myers' — the soft, feathery fern that fans out like a green firework.
Kokedama (Japanese for "moss ball") is the centuries-old art of growing a plant in a sphere of soil and moss instead of a pot. The result is a quietly beautiful, sculptural houseplant that feels equal parts wabi-sabi and modern minimalist.
What you get
- One handcrafted foxtail fern kokedama, approximately 4–5" in diameter at the moss ball, with foliage reaching 8–12" tall
- Each one is genuinely one-of-a-kind — moss patterns and fern shape vary
- Care card with watering and light instructions
- Free shipping, packaged to arrive safely
Why foxtail fern?
Unlike most ferns, the foxtail is forgiving. It tolerates lower humidity, handles a missed watering, and actually likes bright light — making it one of the easiest "fern" varieties for real-life homes.
Light: Bright, indirect light. A few hours of gentle morning sun is welcome.
Water: Soak the moss ball in room-temperature water for 10–15 minutes when it feels light and dry to the touch — typically every 7–10 days. Let it drip dry before returning to its display dish.
Display: Beautiful on a small saucer, in a shallow bowl, or hung from natural twine.
Handmade in small batches in Tennessee. If your kokedama arrives damaged, we'll make it right.
