THANKS, jshank. I appreciate your kind comment. However, I can't ever use the "made up adjective" that rhymes with awesome again because my major competitor in the US moss industry decided to copyright it and threatened me.

Hey Catalina, Thanks for your comments. MOSS lovers, like you and me, live all around the world. I noticed moss in a news story this week in Kate's new children's garden. I follow several bryologists that live in the UK, Ireland, Wales and Scotland. YES, we keep busy at Mountain Moss rescuing mosses from places where they will be destroyed. This week, we gathered Atrichum angustatum and Leucobryum glaucum moss species from a gravel driveway that was planned for paving and a septic tank area.

Very nice, presently moss has taken over a good part of my front yard which is fine with me. Considering removing my grass lawn and allowing the moss to thrive as it wants to. Moss is so much more beautiful. Thank you for your great video ,you are very inspiring

[@MossinAnnieMountainMoss]

By now, I hope that you've started the process of getting rid of the grass and encouraging the existing mosses in your lawn to thrive. You can rake the existing moss into vacant places in the grass to help mosses spread. Of course, if Mother Nature doesn't provide enough moisture, supplemental watering will increase the growth rate. -- Mossin' Annie

Just moved into a mobile home park in GA, having lived all my former 55 years in California (just turned 56 on May 30) - where moss doesn't normally grow except maybe in the most northern forests - and am DELIGHTED with the natural moss that grows around my home! It's been pretty wet, so it's growing like gangbusters out in the shady back area, and I am hoping to get more of it to grow in this bare patch by my deck, out front. Just transplanted a little yesterday to add to the little that was naturally growing, and am really happy to see I mostly did it right! :) I have a dozen or so ceramic mushrooms I've collected over the years that I added to hopefully provide a little protection from the sun on summer days. I won't have the option or ability to create such a beautiful fairy garden like you have, here in the park, but I can have my tiny moss oases!! So happy my husband just happened upon your channel!

I love your voice and manner of speaking. It's charming and soothing as other posters mentioned. In March this year, I created two moss gardens under some oak trees on my property. They are thriving with almost no effort on my part. I just spritz with water twice daily and the moss has exploded in growth and beauty. It must really like where I've re-homed it. I've subscribed and I am now a moss devotee of yours!

I realized moss and likens will be perfect to achieve the look and feeling I'm going for, and you are giving me wonderful inspiration. Thank you so much, Dave.

[@MossinAnnieMountainMoss]

Hey Susan... Glad to hear that you want to encourage MOSS on your property. Clearing debris, weeds and especially leaf litter will be advantageous to your efforts. BTW, not all mosses need to live in shade. Another point of information -- deer will eat hostas (and even some ferns) BUT deer don't like the taste of mosses.

Ok just fell in love with moss!!! I think I need to go rescue some too!! 💕 LOL checking out your website also, love the educational ID kit, if I could afford it, this would be a wonderful home school project!

[@MossinAnnieMountainMoss]

Hey Chromedaffodils... love your "name." Daffodils are my favorite flowers. Look for rescue opportunities... places where houses will be renovated or torn down; roofs; edges of parking lots... to find mosses. Please don't go to the woods unless you own the property or have permission. Definitely, don't "steal" from our protected parks and forests. I did a rescue last weekend from the Interstate buffer zone next to a car dealership. This week, I rescued from a location where the cottage was being torn down and the grounds destroyed in the process. We got 10 sleds of Hypnum! If you want to start your own "herbarium" collection (that's what dried mosses in ID packets are called at universities), you can start collecting different species. You could purchase your own close-up lens or jeweler's loupe to take a closer look at the tiny botanical details of bryophytes. Your challenge will be trying to identify your species. My bryophpyte ID kit eliminates the need to determine species. If you are a home-schooler, then the ID kit could be a project and lesson to share with other home-schoolers in your town. It really fun to check out the intricacies on moss plants and teach the students about the oldest living plants on Planet Earth! Thanks for your comments. All Best, Mossin' Annie

[@MossinAnnieMountainMoss]

Thanks for taking the time to comment on this video, Jose. Indeed, moving rocks should be treated seriously with concern for proper personal safety. If you are picking up a rock, it is best to plant feet firmly and squat with your back straight while lifting. In some cases, I will use a sled to slide piles of rocks to intended locations... amazing how many heavy rocks can be moved easily this way. Most times, I ask one of my assistants who is much bigger and stronger than me to move feature rocks. Sitting boulders must be moved with a skidsteer or a tractor with a bucket. In this case, although I wouldn't have been able to stand up and carry this particular quartz rock hidden under the decorative Acer tree (miniature Japanese maple), I was able to scoot it around because the ground was muddy and I could slide the rock okay. One definite safety concern would be my footwear -- heavy boots are much wiser than flip-flops. --Mossin' Annie

@@MossinAnnieMountainMoss that would be a dream. There's a video series called japanology and theres a special on moss. Do you propagate any of your moss or are they all rescues?

[@MossinAnnieMountainMoss]

@@Shetasen Yes, I've seen several videos from Japanology. Thanks for reminding me. Yes, some of the rescued mosses are designated for propagation and cultivation purposes at my Mossery.

Came looking for moss planting techniques, turns out they weren't in this video and the title is misleading. But stayed (for a little while) because of that ridiculous way of talking. Oh my. What a hoot. Great character, do you do stand-up?

Well this video just tickled me 🤍
