GOTO BENOSE asked:-
is this any moss with roots i do keep some irish moss around and every year
i trip up to a small area in the pot i think it help new rooted trees bond
better in the pots and after a season or two cut it dead the roots remain
and suply natural fertilizer for the tree. Is this ok?

Many Japanese trees have their surfaces covered with moss thickly after
repotting to maintain humidity around the roots. Peter Chan recommends
incorporating a proportion of sphagnum moss in the soil mix to help certain
species like maples recover from repotting or root rot. Afraid I don't know
what Irish Moss is but I can't see the small amout of any plant remaining in
the pot after you've cut its top off doing any harm.
