I’m pretty new to this whole moss thing and I’ve been playing around with different decorations to go with the mosses. I added this dried seed pod from a Pincushion Hakea I have in my garden.
After a couple of days I saw it and thought ‘huh, I thought that pod was open’. I thought I must’ve been remembering wrong, but a few days later I’d run low on my distilled water and was late with watering. This little pot dries out very quickly, and lo, the pod had opened again as the media dried! I added water and it began closing again.
So, I’ve inadvertently discovered a way to tell if the soil is dry. Please don’t judge me too much on my decor or the state of my off season moss – as I said I’m just playing around at this stage, I haven’t created anything Insta-worthy, but I thought this discovery was really neat!
