🌿 Marimo Moss Ball Large Kit Care Guide

Welcome to your simple and engaging guide to caring for your Marimo Moss Ball Large Kit. Whether you’re a seasoned plant lover or just starting, this guide will help you keep your Marimo Moss Ball thriving!

☀️ Light

☀️▫️▫️ (Low)

Marimo Moss Balls thrive in low light conditions. Keep them out of direct sunlight, as excessive light can promote algae growth on the glass, not on the Moss Ball itself. A spot with indirect light is perfect, making them ideal for rooms with fewer windows or office spaces.

💧 Water

💧▫️▫️ (Low)

Marimos are not demanding when it comes to water changes. Refresh the water every 2-3 weeks to keep it clean. Use cold tap water that has been left to sit for a day or use filtered water to refill the jar.

🌡️ Temperature

🌡️▫️▫️ (Cool)

Marimo Moss Balls prefer cooler temperatures, ideally between 15°C and 25°C. Avoid placing them near heat sources like radiators or sunny windows, especially during the summer.

💧 Humidity

💧▫️▫️ (Low)

Humidity levels are generally not a concern with Marimo Moss Balls as they live submerged in water. Just ensure the water is clean and cold.

🌱 Repotting (or substrate info for moss/creatures)

No soil or repotting required! Marimos live in water, making them wonderfully low maintenance. Just ensure to occasionally roll the moss ball in your hand to maintain its round shape and promote even growth.

🐾 Pet Friendliness

Marimo Moss Balls are safe for both pets and children. They are an excellent choice for adding greenery to your living space without worrying about toxic risks to curious paws and hands.

🏡 Recommended locations at home

These enchanting moss balls look great on desks, bookshelves, or bedside tables. Their compact size and soothing green hue make them a calming addition to any room.

✨ Other Plant Features

Not only do Marimo Moss Balls bring a unique aesthetic to your home or office, but they are also known for their longevity and easy care. Each moss ball can live for many years, sometimes decades, with minimal care, growing about 5 mm per year.

  • 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.
