Review: No success after 6 weeks... - i have grown moss before from other companies and it always worked. I followed instructions on package to the letter and after 6 weeks...nothing. I will give it a few more weeks but don't have much faith that it will grow. It was a cheap experiment so I don't feel cheated, but thought the company should know. Thank you. Review: never sprouted - The moss never sprouted. I used half of it. I am hoping in the spring to try again. ## Features - KYOTO MOSS SPORES FOR THE ART OF BONSAI, SAIKEI AND TRAY LANDSCAPES ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0011VRFWS | | Best Sellers Rank | #80,181 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #135 in Floral Moss | | Brand | Joshua Roth | | Brand Name | Joshua Roth | | Color | Green | | Customer Reviews | 3.4 out of 5 stars 402 Reviews | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Indoor/Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Manufacturer | Joshua Roth Limited | | Manufacturer Part Number | 70518163560 | | Material Feature | Natural | | Material Features | Natural | | Model Number | 6356 | | Moisture Needs | Moderate Watering | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Plant or Animal Product Type | bonsai | | Product Care Instructions | Indirect Sunlight | | Soil Type | Sandy Soil | | Sunlight Exposure | Full Sun | | UPC | 705181635606 | | USDA Hardiness Zone | 3 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Joshua Roth - **Color:** Green - **Indoor/Outdoor Usage:** Outdoor - **Material Feature:** Natural - **Moisture Needs:** Moderate Watering - **Product Care Instructions:** Indirect Sunlight - **Soil Type:** Sandy Soil - **Sunlight Exposure:** Full Sun - **USDA Hardiness Zone:** 3 - **Unit Count:** 1.0 Count ## Images ![Kyoto Moss Spores - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41BeoYYq4oL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: how long does it take to grow?** A: Mine took a few months to really get established and growing good. It sprouted in a couple weeks. **Q: I have an indoor Bonsai, can I sprinkle this on the earth around the tree, and just let it grow?** A: In theory it might, but if you read the reviews you will find that like me, pretty much no one has been able to grow the moss. I would save you money and see if you can find some nice moss in your yard. **Q: I want to mix this with buttermilk and paint on rocks but i live in so calif so i'm thinking that it probably won't work?** A: I have this growing in a controlled environment, it's fairly temperamental. You're better to find local moss in your area, and use that instead. **Q: What zones will this successfully grow outside?** A: Kyoto, if I am not mistaken, is zone 6/7. So it should be OK in areas like that. It did not grow for us in zone 5, but maybe the reason was not cold, but some other factors. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No success after 6 weeks... *by B***. on January 24, 2018* i have grown moss before from other companies and it always worked. I followed instructions on package to the letter and after 6 weeks...nothing. I will give it a few more weeks but don't have much faith that it will grow. It was a cheap experiment so I don't feel cheated, but thought the company should know. Thank you. ### ⭐ never sprouted *by V***W on January 9, 2024* The moss never sprouted. I used half of it. I am hoping in the spring to try again. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Long germination *by G***S on June 29, 2023* Long germination. Up to 8 weeks. Will Write follow up as they they develop. Growing under glass to maintain humility and avoid drafts.. Been under glass 2 months, and I am sad to say for me these spores are a waste of money and time. I would not recommend this product to anyone, ## Frequently Bought Together - Kyoto Moss Spores - Moss Spores for Bonsai Trees - Covers Up to Three Square Feet, Bright Green Velvet Kyoto Bonsai Moss That is Weed Free, Indefinite Shelf Life - Bonsai Fertilizer - Gentle Slow Release Plant Food Pellets - Ideal for All Indoor and Outdoor Bonsai Tree Plants in Pots (5 oz) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/5148214-kyoto-moss-spores](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/5148214-kyoto-moss-spores) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
