Shiragagoke, or White Hair Moss, is a type of moss that has green leaves with a white hue, which becomes more pronounced when the moss dries. It grows naturally in a mat-like formation in shady areas throughout Japan, particularly around the base of trees where it is not directly exposed to rain. Due to its relatively large size within the Shiragagoke family and its aesthetic appeal, it is often used for decoration in bonsai and miniature gardens.
In terms of care, it is recommended to keep it in the shade. It can be kept indoors, but it is sensitive to heat and humidity, so care must be taken when choosing a location. Avoid places with too much sunlight, such as windowsills, and choose a location where it is not directly exposed to sunlight, such as the center of a room. It likes humidity, so it is also suitable for sealed terrariums.
For soil, a standard moss soil mix of 7 parts akadama soil to 3 parts river sand will suffice. Bark culture soil is also acceptable. If you are planting it in a garden, place the collected moss on top of the soil, leaving a gap of 1-2 cm between each piece. The placed moss will gradually form a mat.
Shiragagoke is popular for its beautiful appearance and is often used in terrariums and moss balls. It is also one of the more readily available types of mountain moss and is easy to grow, even for beginners. However, unauthorized collection of moss is illegal, so please obtain permission from the management authority or landowner before collecting. It is also available for purchase, and Bonsai Myo sells high-quality Shiragagoke. It comes with a cultivation guide that makes it easy for beginners to grow, and it enhances the charm of your garden or garden. Same-day shipping is also available.
