Explore the Japanese art of Kokedama and take home your own houseplant to care for at home.

This creative botanical planting technique grows a plant in a ball of soil covered in moss.

Together we will explore the basics of plant care using our conservatory plants as inspiration, learn about the benefits of houseplants, and assemble our own Kokedama ball with easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions.

Each child participant will create their own hanging 6' Kokedama ball with an easy-to-care-for houseplant and use string, pipe cleaners, and toy eyes to bring their moss ball mandrake to life.

Please note this class for children with or without their adult companions.
