Fire Fern Moss Ball Idea
Materials: leftover moss fragments, akadama soil, a large amount of red clay, plus a mesh net. Plants: Plagiomnium cuspidatum moss and fire fern. This moss ball is mainly composed of red clay.

Fire Fern in a Wooden Box: A Bonsai Style Indoor Planting Idea
The main plant is: fire fern (Oxalis hedysaroides). How I did it: I started with a small pot of fire fern. Right in that same pot, I also inserted a piece of variegated ivy, two small friendship plants, and some common small oxalis. I placed the entire pot directly into a wooden box.

Planting in a Bonsai Style: Ginseng Ficus and Nerve Plant
Ginseng ficus is a very common bonsai tree. I choose it for t is inexpensive, widely available, and naturally attractive in form. In your area, if you can change to local mini tree. The key point is how you style it. I have talked about ginseng ficus before—in a tall glass cloche together with moss. However, many people prefer to grow ginseng ficus in the open, planted in a pot and placed directly on a desk or balcony. Ginseng ficus likes moisture but is also very drought-tol

Repurposing Leggy Succulents: A Bonsai-Style Planting Idea
Today, I’d like to share a bonsai-style planting project created by repurposing leggy succulents. Leggy growth in succulents is extremely common. Too much watering and insufficient light are usually the main causes. When this happens, the plant often turns into a long, bare stem—something most people would consider unattractive. At first glance, it really doesn’t look appealing. But if you take a closer look, that twisted, winding form begins to resemble a bonsai tree. And th
