New Zealand

Home of the finest and longest Sphagnum Moss in the world, New Zealand is a land where water and air is pure and clean.  Nestled against the snow capped Southern Alps, of New Zealand you'll find Discoveries In Gardening  surrounded by mountains, forest, lakes and rivers.  Here Discoveries in Garden Ltd markets a top quality range of unique gardening products inspired and initiated by the amazing properties of Sphagnum Moss (sphagnum christatum & sphagnum subnitens). 
 
The Discoveries Story

Discoveries In Gardening Limited is a Worldwide marketing and manufacturing company for Sphagnum Moss products sold and branded as Angel Moss TM products.  We can supply you Angel Moss TM  in individual cartons or in full 40ft containers.  Discoveries In Gardening Ltd was created in 1999 and began marketing and exporting its products into the USA in 2000 with only four products, namely 14” and 16” basket and liner sets and refill liners for both sizes. We were already exporting to the UK and Japan at this time.

Originally our products were manufactured by Lakeview Moss Ltd in New Zealand, but in 2006 Discoveries in Gardening bought out Lakeview Moss Ltd, and in 2009 Lakeview Moss was completely merged into the one company Discoveries In Gardening Limited. Our New Zealand Sphangnum Moss (Angel Moss TM) is exported to Europe, Asia, South Africa, North America and Canada.

2004

Branding of New Zealand Sphagnum Moss as Angel MossTM

Branched out to include the English Garden Range of Ironwork & Molded Angel MossTM liners for the customer who wants premium quality.

Introduction of the rigid chain, which has the up-market chain look and yet retains the rigidity of a wire hanger, thus providing ease of hanging. This addition was well accepted in the marketplace and is highly sought after. We have many customers now who will not use any hanger other than our patent pending rigid chain.
