| What is ANGEL MOSS ? |  |
|
||||||||||||
| |
||||||||||||||
| Angel Moss is a species of Natural Sphagnum Moss (sphagnum christatum) with remarkable characteristics - most notably its high moisture retention and effective antibacterial action. Angel Moss is grown on the West Coast of New Zealand - a country of great contrasts, abundant wildlife and spectacular scenery including rivers, lakes, mountains and forests. The high rainfall (about 170” a year) on the West Coast of the South Island provides the perfect growing environment for Angel Moss to thrive and regenerate itself every four to five years. From the natural swamps on the West Coast of New Zealand, Angel Moss is carefully harvested by hand, dried and transformed into basket liners, soil conditioners and orchid growing medium. Angel Moss is exported to Europe, Asia, South Africa, North America and Canada. WATER HOLDING PROPERTIES Constructed like a big sponge, Angel Moss absorbs water and freely releases it to plants. Angel Moss can hold up to 20 times its own weight in water which means 1lb of dry Angel Moss can hold up to 2 gallons of water. Angel Moss has a high exchange capacity which is to say that it has the ability to transfer fluids and nutrients extremely well. ANTISEPTIC PROPERTIES The acidity of Angel Moss inhibits most bacterial growth. It is regarded as being a sterile medium that is naturally Aseptic which means it contains no bacteria, viruses or other micro-organisms. It contains a natural antibiotic called ‘Tropolene' which prevents the growth of micro-organisms. |
