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.
Its low, spreading habit makes it perfect for terrariums, moss walls, kokedama, or creating a miniature woodland floor.
