USE THE RIGHT MOSS, INTHE RIGHT WAY

摘要

We use it every day—but what is moss anyway? The term is applied to a range of floral-industry products that vary quite a bit in their appearance and performance. True mosses are botanically simple, primitive plants that have survived nearly unchanged for more than 200 million years. These small, spore-bearing land plants are found worldwide except in salt water.All true mosses can be classified into two types: acrocarpous (with an upright growth habit) and pleurocarpous (with a prostrate growth habit)—hence the major difference between mood moss, which is very thick with an upright growth habit (acrocarpous),and sheet moss, a low-growing pleurocarpous moss.
