What Is Moss?

 

Reindeer moss is beautiful greyish-colored lichen that forms large mats over the ground in boreal and arctic regions around the circumpolar north. Found primarily in areas of alpine tundra, it is extremely cold hardy. Reindeer moss are very useful for human and animal consumption.

 

Reindeer moss is a heaven’s gift, which is often used in holiday decorating. The beauty of reindeer moss lies in its multidimensional structure and round shaped upper surface. Each sprig of moss is unique; you will not find two that are similar. It makes an attractive addition to many holiday wreaths and centerpiece displays with holly and evergreen branches.
