One of the most fascinating elements in a moss picture or moss wall is the preserved moss. This moss undergoes a special process that allows it to look fresh and vibrant for years. But how is this possible, and does this moss require no watering?

The answer is surprising, but clear: No, preserved moss does not require watering . And this applies not only to large-scale watering, but also to any spraying or moistening.
To understand why this is so, let's take a look at the preservation process. In this process, the moss's natural sap is replaced with a preservative solution. This solution permanently preserves the moss, allowing it to retain its natural elasticity, freshness, and color.
While this process "freezes" the moss in its current state, it also makes it independent of the conditions living moss needs to survive. This includes water. Therefore, no watering, spraying, or other moistening is necessary to maintain the moss in a moss picture or moss wall. In fact, such a practice could even be counterproductive and damage the moss.
However, it's important to note that although moss doesn't require watering, it still prefers certain conditions. For example, it should be protected from direct sunlight and hung in a room with a humidity level between 35% and 70% to ensure its longevity.
