ANGEL MOSS LINERS

REQUIRE ½ THE WATERING

OF COCOFIBER LINERS
It is widely acknowledged that due to its moisture-holding properties Angel Moss provides a sympathetic base for lining hanging baskets.

Every part of Angel Moss is permeated with minute tubes and spaces resulting in a system of delicate capillary cells, having the effect of a very fine sponge. The cells readily absorb water and retain it to a capacity of up to 20 times its dry weight.

This means that 1lb of dry Angel Moss can hold up to 2 gallons of water. And since Angel Moss liners absorb so much water, retain that water and transfer that water so well, your plants will always be maintained in top condition.

Angel Moss really is ‘Nature’s Sponge’.

 
As Seen on TV in the USA    
Over recent years easy to use, preformed liners made of coco-fibre have been introduced and widely marketed as an alternative to moss.

However independent and practical usage has highlighted significant differences in the watering requirements of hanging baskets lined in coco-fibre when compared to those lined with Angel Moss.

Acknowledged experts/leaders in hanging baskets in NZ and the USA have reported when trialing preformed Angel Moss liners that Angel Moss requires significantly less watering than coco-fibre.

In particular statements have come from:

Peg Marsden in Hamilton, New Zealand, "Having used coco-fibre for many years, I find that the Angel Moss Liners hold significantly more water, and have cut back the number of days I need to water by half"

Bill Ward & Peg Marsden  
Recent independent trials by leading horticulturalist, author, and media personality - Bill Ward, and hanging basket expert - Peg Marsden, highlight that Angel Moss Liners require only half the watering when compared to Cocofiber Liners.
These Independant trials compare watering requirements & overall "Plant Health” and vigor over a 6 month period. 8 different trials were caried out over this period
