Always pre-soak the moss in warm water to re-hydrate and expand fibers. Pack loosely around orchid roots for best moisture balance and airflow. Maintain consistent moisture — avoid allowing moss to fully dry out. Flush occasionally with fresh water to preserve healthy pH levels. Plan to re-pot every 1–2 years or when moss shows signs of breakdown.
We ship live orchid plants with care. All plants are carefully inspected, packed bare root or in pot, and shipped to arrive in excellent condition.
