Caring for your miniature moss garden is easy and fun!

 

Moss gardens need frequent misting or watering. ​Tap water, well water, rainwater or distilled water are all fine to use. 

​

If your garden is enclosed (has a lid or wrap covering), it will need less watering/misting than an open garden. 

​

Check the water level in your garden weekly.  Most of our gardens have potting soil and/or pea gravel as the lowest layer. This layer should remain wet or underwater to help maintain moisture in the garden. 

​

Use a mister or the gentle spray feature on your kitchen sink to keep your garden hydrated and happy. Misting and caring for your garden is a calming and rewarding experience. 

​

If your garden contains tree bark, you may uncover the container to avoid mold.  If you notice algae growing in your aquatic garden, simply remove with a Q-Tip. 

​

You can get creative and add or change the moss and plants in your garden, or add special shells, stones or small figures.

 

Fun tip: Moss gardens are a great first plant for young children, who can care for the garden on their own.
