Amphidium mougeotii Is a full light low humidity moss that grows on rock/clay/ Sandy soil. a stunning moss for full light spectrum projects, moss walls, landscaping bonsai decor and terrariums
We are a official plant nursery based in France, all our plants, and bryophytes have plant passports with our official agricultural B number
0340088V, when being sent to all EU countries, countries outside the EU will be sent with a Phyto certificate, this process will take a little longer to process the orders as the Phyto certificate can take 1 week to to receive the certification.
We offer free shipping to France and EU countries from 100 euros of items bought and free shipping to none-EU countries for order over 500 euros.

We sell Amphidium mougeotii AKA Mougeot’s Yoke-moss as a grown moss in many dimensions, as inoculated clay/Alfisols discs with spores and mother moss, and now as kokedama moss balls! (Our kokedama are unique in the fact that we use sphagnum substrate inside a hessian bag and on the outside, we use living moss!)
we also sell the correct "Growing Substrate" for this moss
(When choosing which items to add to your basket please be aware of the difference in 5x5cm Moss: a carpet of moss. and substrate)
We do International post tracking with every order. Your order will be packed safely and I'll send your Internation tracking number so you can follow your order travels to you :)
You will be receiving moss which has been dehydrated for shipping, when she arrives just rehydrate her by spraying water on her, and within seconds she comes back to life.

This beautiful moss will cover your rocks and cushions out of livingwalls cooling your gardens in the summer. She looks stunning in terrariums her vivid color and tiny star shape makes her stand out from the crowd. Amphidium mougeotii AKA Mougeot’s Yoke-moss forms vivid, mid-green, rounded cushions 3–7 cm deep. These can often
be recognized from a distance. Each shoot is quite tall, mid-green at the top and
orange-brown below, with fairly long (about 2 mm), narrow, sharply pointed leaves.
Capsules are only produced occasionally, and project just above the cushions on a
seta 3 mm long.
Our clay discs are inoculated with Amphidium mougeotii spores and mother plant which, once wet, will grow after 3 weeks into moss that then connects together into a carpet and spread from there. The benefit of growing from spores is 1- they grow and thrive in the environment, if terrarium or moss garden, or water feature 2- the clay discs can be molded into any shape once wet and will stick to any surface. You can also divide the discs as they are inoculated with thousands of spores. You can also divide the discs as they are inoculated with thousands of spores. To give the spores the correct substrate 3 discs is equal to 30x30cm of the substrate, you simply mix the clay disc into the substrate and spread it into a 30x30cm carpet.

Historically, three taxonomic bryophyte groups have been recognized and now represent the three main divisions in this group: Marchantiophyta (liverworts), Bryophyta (mosses) and Anthocerotophyta (hornworts). The three main groups have diversified throughout their evolutionary history, making it difficult to identify the specific characters separating these three groups.
The status of bryophytes as the oldest living land plants is widely accepted
Moss is also great to beautify pot plants: clear away the weeds place the moss around the plant and WoW! just so much more beautiful, the moss will help keep the plant's earth moist and stop weeds growing as well!
They evolved about 500 million years ago. Like other land plants, mosses contain green chlorophyll and make their own food through photosynthesis, which involves using the energy of the sun to combine carbon dioxide and water to make sugars.
Mosses are nonvascular plants, which means that they lack a vascular system. Because nonvascular plants lack lignified water-conducting tissues, they can't become as tall as most vascular plants.
The Ecological Roles of Mosses - Mosses play essential roles in the natural world:
Mosses don't need previously developed soil to survive, because they obtain their mineral nutrients from rain or running water.
This means that mosses are sometimes the first to colonize newly exposed areas. They promote soil formation, because (as they grow) dust and humus collects among the stems. When they die, their bodies decompose and add to the developing soil.
Mosses grow where other plants cannot, because they can survive without being rooted in soil. They can survive on cliffs, rocks, steep hills, and tree trunks. Mosses colonize the barren rocks and exposed areas of hills, and make them suitable for growing larger vascular plants by depositing humus soil and plant debris. Mosses can remain alive even during periods of drought, resuming photosynthesis when moistened again by rain or even fog.
Mosses play an important role in the global carbon cycle. They absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. In areas with cool climates, decomposition is slow because of cold temperatures. This means that large amounts of carbon are sequestered in the Sphagnum of bogs.
Mosses also contribute to the environment by absorbing water from rainfall and runoff, then slowly releasing it to the ground or atmosphere. This reduces stream erosion and fluctuating lake levels.
Mosses also provide habitat on which many species ultimately depend, underpinning entire ecosystems. Mosses provide shelter for other organisms such as small insects. The insects, in turn, provide food for frogs, which in turn provide food for snakes, which in turn provide food for carnivores like bobcats.
