What is Spanish Moss? It is not a Parasite.

Spanish moss, sometimes called Grandfather's Graybeard or Florida Moss, is soft, graceful, eerie and beautiful all at the same time. A romantic symbol of the South, it is greenish silver after a rain, and grayish-silver at other times.

Spanish moss can grow strands up to 20 feet long especially on Live Oak and Cypress tree branches.

As an epiphyte, an air plant that lives upon other plants, it absorbs nutrients and water from the air and rainfall. It is not a biological parasite in the same sense as some other epiphytes that sap nutrients from the tree.

How is it Shipped? Live.

It is shipped alive and fairly tight in the box, but not so compressed that it cannot breathe. The weight listed is the weight of the moss, excluding packaging. The final shipping weight is greater.

The FSM Theory. Does Spanish Moss Kill Trees?

Does Spanish Moss kill trees? We have always found it curious that while we do believe that Spanish Moss does not kill trees, the volume of Spanish Moss on a healthy oak tree does seem to be significantly more where branches are dead and a dead tree always seem to have more moss than a live one. What then is the cause and effect? The FSM Theory...
