As the name suggests, Irish Moss is a European Native. This thick, dense mat of tiny leaves grows best in moist, well-drained soils to sandy, grave soil. It can be grown in woodland settings, over or between rocks, or between stepping stones.
The bright green leaves are evergreen and the small white flowers are star-shaped. Irish Moss is deer resistant and is a great choice for a ground cover to prevent any weeds from moving in.

yes id did buy and receive bamboo seeds from you. i planted same and now cautiously await some indication the sprouting will begin. we are in northern nj where it is quite cold so i am keeping the plantings in a planter system we use for seedlings. only time luck and patience will tell the ultimate story. if the seeds come to be small plants we will replant into pots until spring and after that we are guardedly optimistic. thanks for the request and service. stewart a farber
I do not have an indoor garden so I am waiting until spring to plant. I will try planting closer to Feb or March in small pods watering with spray bottle, and slowly introduce the plants to outdoor conditions.
