Sheet moss
I ordered 3 shipments of field moss from TN Nursery, as I kept underestimating what I needed for a backyard project. The first shipment was sent to a neighbor's house because I accidentally put the wrong house # on my order. I picked the box up a week later, opened it up, and to my surprise it was still alive and green. I've since finished the project and I'm hoping it takes before the cold Minnesota winter sets in. Fingers crossed. It's not Irish moss but a more fern-like, spongy carpet of a ground cover. I'm very happy with it and how promptly the orders arrived (after I gave them the right address)
