What kind of moss is this? Sphagnum? Another type?

no it's not sphagnum. there are many varieties but not sure which one this is.

They worked in my terrarium-I would mist frequently if using in a regular potted plant. And I believe mosses are sensitive to chemicals (I use distilled water) maybe a layer of plain potting soil as a barrier between the miracle gro?

I think it's maple, but not sure. I've had this in my garden for several years, and it's still looks great.

I had no luck with the moss I bought for my terrariums. No matter how I cared for it, it did not survive. Sorry I can't be more help!

I would think so. It is very soft and flexible. You might need a small thin layer of dirt under the moss to feed it. I use it for Bonsai and have it growing on several pots and rocks. Doug

This variety is not what I wanted. The picture is enlarged to quite an extent. It is not the bamboo type. It is not a dwarf, since it does grow to a little over 2 feet - not what I was looking for. It has served it's purpose since it is very attractive in front of my front entry - gray wall and in a black pot. It clumps but is very, very invasive. Be prepared to re-pot often.

I've only used regular soil, but the moss does like more enclosed terrariums. It's not doing too well in an open pot. (I'm using it in 3 different containers)

It will probably do well with the green moss. I didn't have as much luck with the black mold, but I've heard of others where it worked but took up to 6 months.

Not sure what the question is but I keep mine year-round in a terrarium with small ferns and mosses. They tend to get lost outside due to their size.

I am not a wood expert, but they appear to be a birch variety? It is a fairly hard wood.... Not soft like Balsa or pine

This is really not a Bamboo variety , but is a very primitive ancient plant that reproduces by spores (like Ferns) they do clump but only attain a height of less than two feet. There are several other varieties ofEquisetum that I am not familiar with. "Happy.Happy.Happy" New Year...as the Duck Dynasty Dude says.

It was the actual plant, it came in a plastic bag with water to keep it moist, and then the mossy stuff and container to plant it in also was there. But make sure you get the distilled water BEFORE you take it out of the bag and plant it. Because I planted it first but the moss is dry then I had to run out and find distilled water asap. Hope that helps

We live in a community greatly over-populated with blacktail deer. I have some Irish moss planted from purchased starts and find that the deer do graze on it, but it doesn't seem to bother the plants. It just keeps them nicely trimmed. It is apparently not a very attractive plant to deer, and I suspect that in an area where the deer are not so dense, they wouldn't bother it much.

I don't remember if came with soil or moss. But I remember the plant came already dead! It was a waist of money.

I use moss in my fairy gardens....it must be kept out of the sun keep moist, not saturated and you can't use any plant food. It has no roots, I use top soil as my base for my moss. I'm not an expert just a novice hope this helps.

I have some in an urn indoors that is 6 plus months old and still green. The moss on the porch with filtered sun is beginning to fade slightly.
