This common moss features shoots up to 10-15 cm long, with star-like, spreading leaves that create a lush, textured appearance. Perfect for lawns, terrariums, or natural crafts, it thrives in grasslands, heathlands, and wetlands. As a natural product, slight variations and small pieces of debris may be present but can be easily rinsed out at home.
Add the lush, vibrant texture of Springy Turf Moss (Rhytidiadelphus Squarrosus) to your garden or natural craft projects. Known for its distinctive star-like appearance, this extremely common moss features shoots ranging from a few centimeters up to 10-15 cm long. The 2-2.5 mm long leaves have a unique shape, bending sharply away from the red stem to spread out in all directions, creating a striking, textured look. The broad leaf base completely sheaths the stem, which is visible only through the leaves, adding to its dense, green coverage.
Springy Turf Moss is versatile and adaptable, thriving in a variety of habitats. It is commonly found in unimproved or semi-improved grasslands, forming extensive swards where the grass is short due to mowing or grazing. It can also occasionally be seen in heathlands, flushes, and other wetlands, making it a great choice for creating naturalistic, low-maintenance landscapes. While capsules are generally uncommon, they may appear in certain regions, adding seasonal interest to this already dynamic plant.
Perfect for eco-gardeners, landscapers, and craft enthusiasts, Springy Turf Moss is ideal for creating lush lawns, natural terrariums, or adding a touch of green to creative projects. Please note, as this is a natural product, there may be slight variations in color and texture, as well as small pieces of forest debris. These can be easily rinsed out at home, ensuring your moss is clean and ready to use.
Transform your green spaces with the unique beauty of Springy Turf Moss and enjoy the natural charm it brings to any setting.

We’re a small family business with a big love for plants.
From our base in Aberdeen, we pack every order with care and love. Our small size means we can be flexible with special requests, and we’re always happy to help. We reuse packaging, craft our own eco-friendly products, and offer friendly advice whenever you need it.
Fantastic service as always from Pam, Craig and the Team! Added bonus to get to meet Angus the new puppy!
Great website and very communicative with delivery updates. Minor issue with the interface for the aroid plants bundle: I was unable to select both the base and extension pole, so had to add the latter separately.
Really lovely selection of plants photographed beautifully. I had a question before placing my order and used the online contact form. Craig couldn’t have been more helpful with a super quick response which resolved my query completely. My order was delivered on time and the plants and accessories were wrapped so beautifully with thoughtful little extras which made opening everything really special. I even got a ‘wee gift’ with my order and although I was aware from the website that one would be included with my order, it was just another example of a company who really wants to connect with the customers, even though there must be a financial commitment. I found the website full of useful articles and being able to access specific care guides for my purchases has been extremely useful.
The plants are well taken care of and from the few times I’ve bought from them never had any issues with the plants. 10/10 care would definitely recommend buying either only or in person.
