Review: Better-Gro Sphagnum Moss: My Go-To for Thriving Plants! - As an avid plant enthusiast, I'm always on the lookout for high-quality growing mediums, and Better-Gro Sphagnum Moss has quickly become an absolute staple in my plant care routine. This isn't just any moss; it's truly superior! The quality is evident right out of the bag. It's long-fibered, clean, and free of excessive debris, which makes it a pleasure to work with. I've used it for a variety of purposes, and it consistently delivers outstanding results. For my orchids, it's simply the best. It provides that perfect balance of moisture retention and aeration that orchids crave, preventing root rot while keeping them hydrated. My Phalaenopsis and Cattleya orchids have never looked healthier, with vigorous root growth and beautiful blooms. Beyond orchids, I've found it indispensable for propagating cuttings. Whether I'm rooting a Monstera, Philodendron, or even a succulent, a bed of moist Better-Gro Sphagnum Moss creates the ideal humid environment, leading to quick and strong root development. It's also fantastic for carnivorous plants that require consistently moist, nutrient-poor conditions. What really sets it apart is its incredible moisture retention capacity without becoming waterlogged, coupled with excellent drainage and aeration. This combination is critical for healthy root systems, preventing common issues like compaction and suffocation. If you're serious about your plants and want to give them the best possible start or growing environment, I wholeheartedly recommend Better-Gro Sphagnum Moss. It's a premium product that genuinely makes a difference!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this good for orchids and house plants?**
A: This is a good quality sphagnum moss that will be adequate for orchids but I couldnt comment on house plants. Research the species you want to keep as sphag is not optimal for all orchids. If you are keeping phalaenopsis I would mix this with sungrows phalaenopsis bark and put it in a pit with a lot of ventilation. Never let the water stagnate and warer it when the media dries and the roots turn grey in color.

**Q: is this suitable for succulents**
A: Probably not. It would be better to use a more sandy or small gravel for succulents as they are indigenous to the dessert.

**Q: How big is the bag? Dimensions say 1x1x1**
A: 14 inches long x 8 inches wide x 4 inches thick. It was a bigger bag than I needed

**Q: Can this be used to create a moss pole?**
A: Hello .... 

The packaging for this product says it's "excellent for lining wire baskets and topiary forms". The packaging also claims that this "long fibered" moss "retains moisture and fertilizer" making it "an excellent growing medium for plants." 

The packaging does not mention moss pole.

Hope this helps. Please contact us should you have any other questions.

Thank you. Renee from HikerMomUSA

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better Gro Company is a good source of Orchid Materials
*by D***4 on November 28, 2025*

After buying junk from other vendors, I took my chances with this company. This might not be the best Sphagnum moss out there, but I liked it very much. I got also the best Orchid Bark from this company with a very good price.
