Mary, Mary quite contrary how does your garden grow? In a bottle of course. 

WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?

Learn to design, plant and sustain a divine terrarium with our wonderful Kokedama teacher Alyson. You’ll leave having made your very own miniature, low-maintenance and on-trend biosphere. At the end of the class, you’ll leave merrily clutching your own unique work of art.

WHAT WILL I BE LEARNING?

During the class you’ll learn how to create your own easy-to-keep but beautiful indoor garden. Master the art of wiggling little plants through thin bottlenecks (think cacti, succulents, orchids and tropicals) and making them snug with charcoal, stones and soil. As well as being given all the materials you need to create your own terrarium, you’ll learn how to make the tools to work with difficult bottle shapes (ever tried squeezing a cactus into a bottle?) and how to choose plants which thrive in their own microclimate. 

THE ALL IMPORTANT DETAILS

This is a gift for two people. Everything you need – glass containers, plants, soil and accessories – will be provided on the day. You’re more than welcome to bring your own container if you have something special planned. This is a small group session and lasts 1.5 hours and takes place at Alyson's studio in Bethnal Green. They usually happen on the 4th Saturday of the month.
