Type of Moss:
Harvested from the pristine wetlands of Canada, Natural Canadian Sphagnum Moss (Sphagnum spp.) offers a vibrant, colorful moss option that arrives in a dormant state, allowing you to revive it to its full, lush form. Known for its unique shades of green, pink, and red, this moss provides a visually striking alternative to more traditional varieties. Sustainably sourced, it is perfect for plant decoration, terrariums, vivariums, and creative DIY projects.

Favorable Growing Zones:

• USDA Hardiness Zones: 4-9.
• Climate: Thrives in cool to temperate climates with high humidity and consistent moisture. Commonly found in wetland and forested areas.

Soil Requirements:

• Soil Type: Typically used as a growing medium or soil amendment, rather than directly planted in soil. Provides aeration and moisture retention in potting mixes.
• pH Level: Naturally acidic, with an optimal pH range of 4.0 to 5.5. Ideal for acid-loving plants and beneficial for preventing fungal growth in sensitive species.
• Fertilizer Compatibility: Generally does not require fertilization. When used with other plants, avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers, as excessive nutrients can lead to moss degradation.

Light Requirements:

• Sun Exposure: Prefers low to moderate, indirect sunlight. In outdoor applications, keep in shaded areas or dappled light under tree cover.
• Indoor Lighting: Suitable for low-light conditions, making it ideal for terrariums, vivariums, and shaded indoor decor. Direct sunlight may dry out and fade the vibrant colors.

Watering Requirements:

• Water Needs: High. Sphagnum Moss naturally holds significant amounts of moisture, making it ideal for humid environments. Mist or soak regularly to maintain hydration.

• Moisture Retention: Excellent moisture-retaining properties make it ideal for keeping plant and animal habitats hydrated.

Temperature & Humidity:

• Temperature Range: Best suited for temperatures between 50°F and 75°F (10°C to 24°C). Excessive heat may dry the moss quickly, necessitating more frequent misting.
• Humidity: High humidity (above 60%) is ideal to maintain its lush, colorful appearance. Regular misting or use of a humidifier helps sustain the necessary moisture levels.

Propagation & Growth Cycle:

• Revival: Arrives in a dormant state and can be revived with hydration. Simply soak in water for 15-20 minutes, and it will begin to rehydrate and return to its natural, vibrant state.
• Reusable: This moss is resilient and can be used repeatedly. If it dries out, it can be revived with adequate soaking, making it a sustainable option for various projects.

Care & Maintenance:

• Pruning: No regular pruning is necessary. However, removing any discolored or damaged parts can help maintain the aesthetic quality.
• Durability: Known for its low-maintenance care and ability to retain moisture, making it a versatile option for beginner and expert plant enthusiasts alike.

Additional Tips:

• Uses: Natural Canadian Sphagnum Moss is excellent for terrariums, vivariums, pet habitats, fairy gardens, bonsai setups, and as a moisture-retaining substrate for orchids and other tropical plants.
