Description

A greyish-green moss with branched stems. Willow moss grows all year round in both fast-flowing and still water. It is so named because it was used by the Swedes to fill up spaces in their chimneys and walls to exclude air and prevent fire.

Repotting or planting

We suggest planting 2-3 bunches per 1m². Willow Moss benefits from the base of the plant being pushed into soil or gravel.

Care instructions

Can be dropped in pond as a weighted bunch. This plant can grow in both still and fast-flowing water where anchorage is required. This can be achieved by tying the plant to a stone or brick and placing it in running water.
