Friend, you pm me to ask and now you post. AiyayaH!

Goto any nursery which sells orchids or ACE hardware at the Curve or Midbvalley. Nurseries, how about the ones at sungai buluh or at Tropicana under the high tension wire near the Damansara Toll. Simple la. Just as for Sphagnum moss or moss for orchid. About RM10 - 15 you get a enuf to last you for a while.

Had to add this. A Penang guy telling you where to buy things in KL? I feel pretty honoured.

Hi....I'm also not sure la but of course live ones are better for the plants as it keeps the humidity high and also can tell you if its time to water or not by looking at the moss see its dry or not but thats not really needed just water once every 2 days for neps..For dried ones you can find them in the gardening section of big marts like Jusco...(which i always get) for RM4 cheap but not so good compared to live ones and new zealand spahnum..

hehe,they're got shpaghum moss growing in the garden of our condo near the swimming pool.No one cares about them except me.I asked the gardeners and they just say don't cut the flowers(they've got those pink orchids and spiderlilys).So I get to collect them.And they're live ones!And.........are there more than one type of sphagum moss?Those on my ping are lighter and the ones I collect are darker green.
