If you wish, you can cutthe moss balls into smaller pieces and the individual pieces will grow intoseparate moss balls. Marimo balls are regarded as good luck charms in Japan,and since they have been known to live to 200 years and beyond, they are oftenkept as family heirlooms. They are thought to symbolize close bonds betweenfamily members or close-knit friends, and are often passed down to childrenand grandchildren or nieces and nephews. By the time future generationsreceive the marimo balls, they will be larger in size and will continue togrow with each generation. Additionally, marimo balls are sometimes given toyoung children as “pets,” since the only care they require is occasional waterchanges. Marimo balls are thought to represent everlasting love; thus, theyare often used as wedding table ornaments or even gifted at weddings.
