Making bonsai and laying a layer of moss on the potted surface may seem dispensable, but if done properly, it will often add a lot of color.

Let's take a look at the general process of laying moss.

The source of moss, ha ha, this is everywhere, pick clean, good growth, dig back on the line. At present, there are many people specializing in moss in the flower market, some of which are not cheap, and the size of a lunch box is dozens of meals. it is a matter of opinion. Don't think that what you buy with money must be good, or it may also come from a mountain gully.

Tidy up the basin and clean the surface of the basin by the way. The soil is usually scraped to a depth of 0.5 to 1 cm from the rim of the basin to leave some space for the moss.

The emerging roots are also trimmed off.

Cut up the dry water moss

Spread a thin layer on the surface of the basin soil, this layer of water moss can play the role of water conservation, will be slowly consumed.

Spray water moss on a wet surface

Start the shop. The process of laying should take into account the growth direction and color of the moss, so that the growth direction is in the same direction and the color is evenly laid together.

The process of paving is relatively casual. Press it with a tool after it is full, so that it combines more closely with the basin soil below.

As there will be some gaps after laying, so fill it with plant material, it is best to use volcanic stone particles, this kind of plant material is dark in color and looks better. Sweep out the excess. Then water it, and it's done.

Look at a few finished products, the effect is still very good. The effect will be very good for half a month.
