New Zealand Sphagnum Moss

We offer the finest quality sphagnum moss from New Zealand. Our moss is the best moss available on the market today. The moss is cultivated in large swampy bogs on the Southern Island of New Zealand. The moss is harvested each year and then regenerates over time. From this time it is clean, graded, and dried in large sheds.We have imported moss for many years but this year’s import is from a new supplier, One Mile Moss, and is some the the finest quality moss we have ever seen. Once it is dry, it is then packaged in three kilo bags and readied for export. There is a level of expertise to grade and clean the moss for the different grades.We are happy to offer two grades. AAA is a high quality moss of fairly long fibers. Four A is an even higher quality moss of longer fibers. Though you may see other brands available on the market, this vendor has supplied only the finest moss.

Sphagnum moss has long been the media of choice by many growers. It has
been used for many years for many orchids such as Masdevallias and other
Pleurothallids as well as such genera as the Cochleanthes groups. In many
countries it is also the media of choice for more common orchids like Cattleyas.
Of course, it is the number one media for Phalaenopsis. Neofinetias are grown
often in sphagnum moss while growers prefer the longest fibers to wrap the
roots. One of the extra benefits of sphagnum moss is that it is quite therapeutic
for controlling many disease pathogens. This benefit was the reason that
Sphagnum moss was used for bandages for wounds during World War I.
Sphagnum moss has also been adopted by other hobbies such as by Reptile
collectors for it’s clean qualities.
