Kokedama

Kokedama is a ball of soil, covered with moss, on which an ornamental plant grows. The idea has its origins in Japan, where it is a combination of the nearai, bonsai and kusamono planting styles. Today, kokedama is very popular in Japanese gardens, like in Sabrinomi and Sereneaku.

It is sometimes spelled Kokodama in English.
