About Fios Jardins Suspensos

What is a Kokedama? Ko·ke·da·ma [Botany] An ancient Japanese technique that consists of working the plants by wrapping their clod in moss. Based on the ancient Bonsai technique, where the vase is replaced by a moss sphere. It is the manual construction of shaping the roots of the plant and being able to suspend it. The term means moss ball (queen) (koke). Behind the construction of a Kokedama, the Japanese concept wabi sabi prevails, which can be translated as the appreciation of imperfection in nature and acceptance of natural beauty. It is contemplative art being a symbol of simplicity, beautiful, imperfect, organic and natural. Fios Jardins Suspensos® is a company dedicated to the transformation of plants, through the conversion of an ancient Japanese technique, which involves a sophisticated manual molding of the earth and its roots by a layer of moss - kokedamas - and its wrapping by threads, the result of which is an elegant and different for suspending plants indoors or outdoors. These living structures are low maintenance, since the plants “involved” by this technique require less regular watering than ordinary potted plants.
