Earth Mosses – Full Sun Moss Plants for Indoors & Outdoors

Bring a magical touch of Middle-earth to your garden with Earth Mosses, a one-of-a-kind collection of hardy, sun-tolerant, moss-like plants inspired by the mystical scenery of The Lord of the Rings. These low-maintenance, evergreen plants are perfect for bright gardens, rockeries, terrariums, or indoor bowls.

Unlike true moss, Earthmosses thrive in full sun and are UK winter-hardy. They offer a soft, lush appearance all year round with very little upkeep.

Are Earth Mosses suitable for gardens exposed to full sun, and how do they handle UK winters?: Earth Mosses are exceptionally sun-tolerant and are designed to thrive in full sunlight, making them ideal for bright gardens and rockeries. They are also winter-hardy, capable of withstanding the cold UK winters while maintaining their lush, green appearance.

In terrariums, they blend beautifully with other moisture-loving plants, enhancing the overall aesthetic and diversity.

Authentic Photos of Our Plants: We take every photo you see, showcasing the actual plants we offer. Each plant is selected randomly unless otherwise stated, adding a touch of surprise to your order.

Natural Variations Make Each Plant Unique: No two plants are the same. Differences in size, leaf count, and minor cosmetic imperfections are part of their charm and individuality, making your plant truly one of a kind.

Healthy Plants, Always: While we can’t guarantee an exact match to the photos, we promise to send only happy, healthy plants that are well-cared for and ready to thrive in your space.

Let Your Plant Settle: Allow your new plant to adjust to its surroundings for 1–2 weeks before repotting, propagating, or making any major changes. This settling-in period reduces stress and helps your plant flourish.

Shipped-in Trusted Potting Mix: Our plants are delivered in a standard grower’s potting mix. When you’re ready to repot, choose from our premium-quality mixes designed specifically for aroids, succulents, and terrariums, available in our shop.

Expert Guidance on Repotting: I’m unsure if it’s time to repot. Check out our article, When to Repot Your Plant, for expert advice on keeping your plant healthy and happy.

Support for Climbing Plants: For Monstera, Philodendron, and Syngonium, add one of our handmade sphagnum moss poles and a watering drip cup. These accessories encourage natural growth, support larger leaves, and keep your plants neat and upright.

Simple Care at Your Fingertips: Every plant includes plant care instructions, and you can scan the QR code on the nursery pot to access detailed guides. For additional help, our Moss Bot is available 24/7 on the website to answer your plant care questions.

I really enjoyed the workshop which was absolutely perfect – I learned so much and the information given was spot on step by step. I know that I will be visiting the shop often given my already love of plants – particularly house plants and of course to say hello ‍♂️ and see Noel and Angus – they are lovely and an asset to your business. Thank you all so much.
