Quality and Botanical Commitment
1. Live and Exclusive Sphagnum Moss At EUSPAGNE, we take taxonomy very seriously. Each portion of moss is delivered in an individual container, correctly labeled with its specific botanical species.
Note on color: As this is living matter, hues may vary from photographs due to lighting, the season, or the plant's own genetics. This natural diversity is a guarantee that you are receiving a living, authentic product, not an artificial reproduction.
2. 3D Designs and Botanical Art Our 3D printing section is more than just decoration. We offer technical planters and relief art designed specifically for the cultivation and aesthetics of carnivorous plants, using durable, high-quality materials.
3. Precision Tools We know that success in cultivation depends on the details. That is why we provide you with the same measuring tools that we use ourselves. Correctly measuring water parameters is the key to maintaining your demanding species in optimal conditions.
Sphagnum Contortum
Sphagnum Contortum (Live Inoculum)
Ecology & Geochemistry: A demanding species and bioindicator of minerotrophic environments and base-rich fens. Unlike most sphagna, it tolerates and prefers unusually high pH and electrical conductivity levels (alkaline waters), thriving in spring flushes and riparian zones with low nitrogen enrichment (oligotrophic).
Morphology & Chromatism: A member of the Subsecunda section, its epithet (contortum) refers to the frequently curved or twisted architecture of its branches. It is a heliophilic species (intolerant of dense shade) that, under adequate light exposure, develops a distinctive coloration ranging from ochre to copper and ferruginous gold hues, offering a unique metallic aesthetic.
Supply Format: Live inoculum portion: 6 x 3 cm (approx).
