This live milled long-fiber sphagnum moss is sourced from the sustainably managed wetlands. It has been meticulously hand-harvested, air-dried, and cleaned to achieve a remarkable 96% water-holding capacity (WHC). It can be used as a standalone seed germination medium, paired with carnivorous plants, or incorporated as an additive into various potting mixes to help improve soil structure and enhance water and nutrient retention.
Premium Origin: New Zealand sphagnum moss is renowned globally for its superior quality, making it a favorite among reptile/amphibian hobbyists and orchid growers.
Exceptional Water Retention: Capable of absorbing 20 times its own weight in water, it helps improve soil drainage and moisture-holding capacity.
