besgrow Compressed 'CLASSIC' Briquette 100gm - New Zealand Premium Sphagnum Moss  

Besgrow Spagmoss is a natural, renewable product harvested sustainably from wetlands on the pristine West Coast of New Zealand’s South Island. Spagmoss is used extensively to grow orchids and other moisture loving plants and to sustain growing environments for plants and reptiles. It’s versatile with remarkable natural properties.

Recognised quality

New Zealand Sphagnum moss is recognised worldwide for its premium quality. In the orchid growing industry it is renowned for having long, strong strands, being long lasting in the pot and having excellent water holding capacity - all of which encourages strong and healthy root development. Besgrow Spagmoss has naturally low concentrations of soluble salts, is relatively sterile and has a structure that allows it to hold up to 20 times its weight in water. These qualities make it ideal for growing ornamental flowers and providing moisture retention for a variety of garden and reptile environments. Besgrow Spagmoss is an outstanding growing medium that lasts.

Spagmoss is effective

Besgrow Spagmoss is hand-picked and naturally air dried to ensure its quality and remarkable water holding capacity (maximum WHC of 96%). This allows the moss to retain water and nutrients for easy release to the plant without accumulating unwanted soluble salts. Growing in high quality media lessens plant management costs and improves plant health. Orchid growers can be certain that Spagmoss will deliver tangible benefits.
