Hi,

I got cocos in a pot in my living room. I want to covered the soil surface some how. Do you think what I should use to cover it, moss, stones or what?

Thank you in advance.

***The finest (smallest) grade of wood mulch. If you only need a
small amount, dunno if it's sold other than big bags. Might save some
for renewing the mulch from time to time, or use in the garden if you
have one.

Thank you.
I don't understand what you meant.
"wood mulch" = small piece of wood?
"dunno" = ?

Why?
There always something covering the soil in the street or even in the garden, perhaps for preventing the dust of the soil? I think I better to cover something to prevent the soil dust fly in my living room and to decorate it.....

I like the look of small, smooth rounded pebbles, indoors. (Not
recommended for a plant that might need frequent repotting.)

Outdoors, I generally use cocoa shells to dress up my pots. These
tend to get dumped into the compost bin at the end of the season so
something organic makes sense there.
