Hi everyone,

There are a number of requests for live Sphagnum moss, so do indicate your interest here if you are looking for some. :flowers:/>

There is no deadline for the order as the availability would depend very much on the season. We could be looking at the processing the order a couple of times throughout the course of next year.

The form originates from Tasmania so it is likely to be S. cristatum, identical to what was sold last year.

*A form that grows very well here without cooling or special conditions
*Semi-dried (to prevent rot during shipment) - fresh green grow tips of 1/2" to 3" long
*Packets of 6" x 6" x 1" @ $15 each

Hi - May i know what conditions are suitable for them and do they need any medium to grow? I'm thinking of a fish tank. How much light and water do they need? Thanks & Rgds

most growers grow it on long fibre sphagnum.
they grow well moist and under lots of light

Sandy, I took a box from your Hortpark sale and all dead after a while, now I have some ( a bit) given by friends, grow under shade, they do better and alive for me, they love light but no direct sun.

Hi Cindy. I'd like 1 pack too. Thanks

& Thanks Sandy / Abby for the growing tips. I have bright shade in my living room. So will probably grow 'em there.
