Miniature Moss Gardens presents expert advice and techniques from
Japan, the birthplace of miniature gardening.
In Japan, moss is revered for its sublime colors and textures, inspiring
gardeners and non-gardeners alike. Moss can be found everywhere--in your
garden, in crevices between stones, and in cracks in the city concrete.
In the tiny world of terrariums, container gardens, dish gardens and
kokedama (moss ball gardens), moss is a magic carpet that turns a
diminutive plot of soil into a self-contained living world.
