Description: Live Sphagnum Moss
Our Sphagnum moss is harvested from renewable sources in Wales UK.
This method allows the user to be environmentally conscience, as no Air Miles are involved in obtaining this product.
When using moss in the UK, we have found that using native moss is a lot better than imported from countries which have a different climate to ours.
Pure Sphagnum Moss is used as a growing medium for Carnivorous plants, orchids etc.

Live Sphagnum moss looks beautiful when encouraged to grow on the top of potted specimens.
When used for hanging baskets, each 12' (30cm) basket would need about 450g of moss.
If used in wreathes, each 14inch wreath would need about 900g for a well packed base.
Or for a thinner wreath base 450g would be fine.
It turns a bright lush green when kept well.
Nepenthes cuttings root well in the medium as it can hold many times its own volume in water.
Live Sphagnum moss is sterile and was used by the army as a wound cleaner and dressing.
On arrival, if it is not going to be used straight away spread out the moss on a tray of water and keep cool to encourage it to grow.
The new shoots will be bright green and the remaining growth when exposed to sun will soon colour up.
Due to the weight we can only post 1.8kg to Greece.
To keep the postage cost down we have included part of the postage in the price of this compost.
