Benefits

Moisture retention

Peruvian sphagnum moss has excellent water-holding capacity, providing a consistent water supply to plant roots. This makes it a valuable component in potting mixes or when used as a top dressing around plants that require high humidity or consistent moisture levels. Perfect for seed starting and as mixes with other growing materials

Reduce plant shock and provides air aeration

Aids in reducing shock when re-potting small plants, orchid and baby seedlings. Along with its moisture retention abilities, Peruvian sphagnum moss also allows for good air circulation. Prevents soil compaction, ensuring oxygen reaches plant roots and facilitating the exchange of gases necessary for healthy root development

Root Protection and Insulation

Peruvian sphagnum moss forms a protective layer when used as a top dressing. It helps insulate plant roots from temperature fluctuations and extreme weather conditions. It can prevent rapid moisture loss from the soil surface and shield delicate roots from potential damage

Sterile medium good Propagation Aid

This sphagnum moss is easy to work with as it provides a sterile medium, anti-fungal which is ideal for healthy plants and speeding up growth. It does not contain any harmful chemicals or weed seeds.
