Description

Star moss is a low-growing, carpet-forming plant with small, star-shaped white flowers. It is often used as a ground cover, lawn substitute or for rock gardens and gaps between stepping stones.

Growing tips

- Ideal for rock gardens, joints, dry stone walls and between stepping stones. - Keep slightly moist at regular intervals, especially during the growth phase. - If the cushions grow too densely, they can simply be divided and replanted. - Light pruning after flowering keeps the carpet compact. - Tolerates moderate foot traffic, but is not a complete lawn substitute for heavily used areas.
