The overhanging weeping moss is also called weeping moss or weeping willow m oss. Vesicularia ferriei is originally from Southeast Asia. It looks very attractive both in the foreground, where it grows along the ground rather creeping, as well as tied up on wood or stones. As a perched plant it unfolds its full beauty, here you can see the overhanging growth of the shoots then very nice. It brings back memories of the cypress forests of Florida with their long moss beards.
Weeping moss is an excellent substrate for biofilms, useful filter bacteria like to settle here and improve the water quality. Baby shrimp also have a great romping spot here with massive surfaces to graze on and plenty of hiding places.
Even though the overhanging weeping moss does not grow as tall as other moss species, it should be cut back from time to time to keep it nice and bushy and compact. To do this, shorten the moss by about 0.5-1 cm. The resulting loose shoots can be easily tied or glued on.
Our recommendation: For a splendid plant growth we recommend the use of the NatureHolic fertilizer series and for new plants the Premium Nutrient Substrate NatureHolic GroundBooster.
Expert tip: With the NatureHolic plant glue you stick this plant gently and uncomplicated on stones, roots and decoration . Made in Germany, the adhesive does not pollute the water and has no negative impact on the stock.
