Review: Best moss for orchids - This review is specifically in the context of growing orchids. It is the only moss I will use for my orchids now, after trying many brands over the years. It is very, very good quality, clean, minimal debris, long, wide strands of quality moss. Excellent water retention because of how full and thick the strands are. I have never yet received a bad batch. Instructions for preparing for storage: It is not ideal to take strands directly from the dry block for use, as they will break and tear and make a mess. The best way to prepare this moss is to hydrate the entire block once you receive it in a sink of water. This will take about 30 minutes. Once the block is completely separated, drain the water and gently squeeze all the water from the moss. lay the moss out on a flat surface to completely dry. I put it out in the sun and it took about eight hours to completely dry. Then you can put it away and it will be ready to use whenever you need it.
Review: Premium good quality - Expensive, but best moss out there that I’ve found to date.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What are the dimension of the bale (L, W, H) while still dry and in its plastic wrapping?**
A: The other answer is not true.  It is 3.5x5x9inches. It is way smaller than any other 12L package that I’ve gotten before, and when I hydrated it, it only made about 4 liters.

**Q: Is this suitable for mounting staghorn ferns in a wire basket or a wall mount?**
A: I don’t have experience with staghorn ferns. I use this for padding mounts for orchids and in small pots. If you intend to pad a wooden mount form ferns, this would work well. I would not fill a large basket with this because it holds a great deal of water and would be too soggy. If you are lining a wire basket it would be easier to use a coco fiber liner or use loose coarse coir fiber (coconut fiber), or buy coco fiber mat in a sheet. Wet before use. Good luck!

**Q: How many cubic feet will this cover?**
A: Am sorry I don't have the answer to this - I use it for orchid growing, but it is amazing how much moss this brick makes when it is dampened.  The dry quantity is very deceiving and just a tiny amount provides quite a lot of coverage when it comes in contact with moisture.

**Q: can this be use for air layering?**
A: It is very good quality moss.  I use it for mounting orchids, so it should work for air layering.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Premium good quality
*by A***N on April 18, 2026*

Expensive, but best moss out there that I’ve found to date.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Besgrow Sphagnum Moss is a superior product
*by J***S on February 22, 2026*

I watched a lot of YouTube orchid videos and most, when they mentioned the brand of sphagnum moss, they used Besgrow Premium NZ Sphagnum Moss. Upon receiving my order from Amazon, I was impressed with the quality of it. Prior to Besgrow, the sphagnum moss I'd bought was of a much lower quality and usually had a lot of hard material included in the moss. Besgrow sells a very clean sphagnum moss, and I've found very little "junk" that gets past their processing. I keep Besgrow Sphagnum Moss at all times in my box of orchid barks, mixes, and other potting materials. The old saying "you get what you pay for" is so true when buying sphagnum moss. You can find deals only that are a bit cheaper, but unless you've had a solid recommendation from someone who uses it you're likely to get an inferior grade of moss. Besgrow Sphagnum Moss you can trust to be a superior product and I highly recommend it!
