| Cultural
information: "Fair Moss" is not a good
choice for large ponds or water features with moving water. Use in
small ponds or containers. "Fairy Moss" is also used in
aquariums and could be held indoors over the winter in a well lit
tank. Remove dead or dying
foliage as it appears. Fish love to nibble on "Fairy
Moss". |
