Kokedama - Cyclamen 4

Cyclamen

Mmm...this picture is dark...but I will put this because this cyclemen was my favourite. I liked its colour of the flowers and standing posture.

One of my local friends bought this for her daughter. It is looked after well in a lovely home now.

Kokedama-Cyclamen 3

Cyclamen is very attractive. Their unique petals are adorable and silver-edged leaves are impressive. I love Cyclamen.

Cyclamen is very common, so it may not be an eye-catching plant for some people, but in Kokedama I think it maximizes its ornamental value taking advantage of green moss.

Moss is great. As soon as moss is laid at the foot of a Bonsai tree, it brings new life to the tree, making you imagine the tree breathing in the mother earth. I think Kokedama is similar to that. Different from potted plants, Kokedama (moss ball) makes me picture their lives in nature.

By the way, I think there is a certain pleasure in Kokedama. That is the container. Choosing a container for Kokedama is like choosing a skirt for the tops. I feel so and enjoy that way maybe because I seldom wear skirt in my every day life, though.

Kokedama-Cyclamen

Cyclamen

One of important flowering plants for winter, Cyclamen. It is very common but I love that flower. Their velvety petals are fascinating. They look like flying fairies, don't they?

Flowering plants are also usable in Kokedama. Kokedama is a very effective way to bring out their beauty, isn't it?
