Planting in Sphagnum Moss


Question
I purchased 4 12inch sphagnum globes to  plant and hang on my porch. . Will small begonias thrive in the moss without soil?  There is no way I can add soil to the spheres.

Answer
Janet, the plants will do just fine. Sphagnum moss is an organic medium which will provide nutrients while holding in moisture much more efficiently than soil. If tended properly, the plants will thrive.

Good luck, and please write again if I can ever be of assistance.

Regards,

Mike
