A true forest floor favorite, Carpet Moss grows in dense, velvety mats across rocks, logs, and soil in woodlands around the world. Found throughout Europe, North America, and Asia, it thrives in shady, humid environments—quietly carpeting the forest with its soft green texture.

Ideal for terrariums, mossariums, bonsai displays, moss walls, and fairy gardens, Carpet Moss thrives in humid, shaded conditions and is low-maintenance once established. Its flexible, creeping growth makes it a favourite for naturalistic landscaping in miniature and larger projects.
