Description
Sphagnum Moss (Living)
Sphagnum platyphyllum
Also known as: Bog Moss, Peat Moss (when dried), Large-leaved Sphagnum
A wetland specialist, Sphagnum Moss naturally grows in bogs, moors, and marshes across the Northern Hemisphere. It plays a key role in peat formation and water retention, soaking up moisture like a sponge and creating the perfect environment for roots to thrive.
Used fresh, it’s an excellent medium for propagation—ideal for rooting cuttings, supporting air-layering, or boosting humidity around moisture-loving plants like aroids and orchids.

Lush, spongy, and perfect for propagation—Sphagnum Moss is a plant parent’s best friend.
