1. What is moss

Moss is a type of plant. It is the lowest of the higher plants and has a very simple structure. It does not have flowers and seeds, nor does it have true roots. It only has two organs: leaves and stems, and generally reproduces through spores. There are many types of it, with more than 23,000 species worldwide. It is also very hardy and can survive in most non-extreme environments.

How is moss formed?

The formation of moss is the result of reproduction through spores. It likes a moist, semi-shady, nutrient-rich environment. In a suitable environment, it will produce a large number of spores. These spores will slowly grow into new moss and produce more spores. Repeating this cycle over and over again, after a period of time, it will be able to reproduce a lot.

Moss method: Take the grown moss together with its soil from outdoor parks or roadsides, gently place it on the surface of the soil in the flowerpot, and press it lightly with your hands to compact it.
