Irish Moss (Sagina subulata) is an incredibly versatile flowering plant from the pink family that grows low to the ground and forms a beautiful, lush carpet. 🌿 Despite its small stature and moss-like appearance, this is a true seed-bearing plant, offering more resilience than regular moss. Whether you’re filling spaces between stepping stones, planting a low-maintenance lawn, or creating soft ground cover, Irish Moss is perfect for gardens looking to add texture and greenery. 🌸
Why Choose Irish Moss?
🌼 Beauty That Lasts Year-Round
Irish Moss thrives in both sun and shade, making it the perfect addition to any garden. With its dense, fine-textured foliage that feels soft underfoot, it creates a velvety green carpet even in challenging conditions. In the summer, you'll be delighted by the appearance of delicate white star-shaped flowers, resembling a field of stars across your lawn. 🌟
🌿 Resilient and Low-Maintenance
Unlike traditional moss, Irish Moss is sun-loving, drought-tolerant, and can even survive frosty winters, making it a great option for year-round greenery in various climates. It also resists trampling, making it an excellent choice for pathways or areas with foot traffic. 👣
🍃 An Elegant, Versatile Groundcover
Irish Moss is the perfect substitute for moss in drier, sunnier climates, especially in rock gardens, between paving stones, or as edging for flower beds. The bright green foliage of ‘Green Coast’ and the striking golden tones of ‘Gold Coast’ can be paired together for stunning visual contrast. 💚💛

Growing and Care Instructions for Irish Moss Seeds
- Light: Irish Moss thrives in partial to full sun. Ensure it gets at least 4-6 hours of sunlight daily. 🌞
- Soil: Use well-draining soil, such as succulent or bulb-specific soil. Irish Moss has a shallow root system, so good drainage is key.
- Watering: Water when the soil feels dry but avoid overwatering, as the plant doesn’t like soggy conditions. It's better to keep the soil slightly on the drier side.
- Temperature: Ideal growing temperatures range from 50°F to 86°F (10°C to 30°C). In southern regions, it can overwinter outdoors as long as temperatures don’t drop below freezing. ❄️
