What our customers say...

Rows of small live moss cuttings sorted into plastic compartment trays, ready for packing terrarium and mossarium orders in The Moss Fairy's Bristol workshop

Over 11,000 orders since 2019, every one packed by hand

Every piece of moss that leaves The Moss Fairy is chosen, checked and packed by one person, the same person who answers your messages. There's no customer-service queue, and nobody who hasn't seen your order.

Bonsai growers use our moss to top-dress trees for exhibitions and photography, where every inch of soil surface is on show. It's the same moss, picked to the same standard, that goes into every order.

Live moss changes with the seasons, so colour and texture vary through the year. If something doesn't look right when it arrives, send a photo and we'll help.

Keeping your terrarium healthy and happy

Our top tips for caring for your new live terrarium moss

Grid of nine beautiful terrariums, live moss species, terrarium supplies and terrarium decorations

Moisture Management

Ensure a consistently moist environment for the live moss in your terrarium. Mist the moss regularly, but be cautious not to oversaturate, as excess water can lead to issues like mold growth.

Light Control

Place your terrarium in a location with indirect light to mimic the natural conditions moss thrives in. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can dry out the moss or create excessive heat.

Ventilation

Maintain good air circulation within the terrarium by occasionally opening the lid or providing small ventilation holes. This helps prevent stagnation and promotes a healthy environment for the moss.

Avoid Chemicals

Live moss is sensitive to chemicals and fertilizers. Refrain from using any substances that might harm the moss, and opt for a natural, chemical-free approach to ensure its well-being in the terrarium.
