KodamaForest Ming Aralia Kokedama

Since the roots are wrapped in moss rather than a traditional pot, the best method is to submerge the moss ball in a bowl of room-temperature water for about 10 to 15 minutes. Once the moss feels saturated and heavy, gently squeeze out the excess water and let it drip dry before placing it back on its display surface.

Yes, this plant prefers a humid environment to stay healthy and prevent leaf drop. If your home is naturally dry, consider misting the foliage regularly or placing the plant on a pebble tray with water to boost the ambient moisture levels.

The Ming Aralia thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate, fern-like leaves, or in very dim corners, which may cause the plant to lose its fullness.

The moss ball is designed to be a self-contained, sculptural unit, so it shouldn't be messy if handled correctly. As long as you allow it to drain fully after watering, the moss will remain intact and tidy.

The plant stands between 20 and 22 inches tall, with the moss ball base measuring 6 to 8 inches in diameter. Its compact yet vertical stature makes it an ideal focal point for tabletops, shelves, or desks.
