Elite Dried Sphagnum Moss
Description:
Sphagnum is a genus of around 300 mosses commonly known as peat moss because of its prevalence in peat bogs and mires. Mosses that belong to the sphagnum genus are known for their high water retention potential, with some species being able to hold up to 20 times their dry weight in water. This is the reason why it is mostly sold as a soil conditioner.
Sphagnum can also act as a protector for succulents. As sphagnum can absorb water rapidly and maintain the moisture content, it allows the succulents to stay hydrated. This type of moss also has antibacterial properties that help cuttings stay healthy and make your garden look fresh as well. This type of moss can also be used for air layering and lining hanging baskets. It is sold in a fresh state.
