Live Sphagnum Moss Heads • Sphagnum cuspidatum (Pure species)

• At Cultivo, every release is carefully selected and grown with purpose. We don’t mass restock - most plants are small-batch, seasonal or one-of-a-kind “exact plant pictured” pieces. Once they’re sold, they’re truly gone. That’s why you won’t see a typical “email me when available” option on these listings
• Some seasonal items or small-batch variants may return in the future. If that happens, we’ll update the original listing with new photos and details
• 🔔 For updates on new and rare arrivals, keep an eye on our New Arrivals Collection or join our VIP list above.
