Nurseries do not carry them because they think that it is expensive and their customers will not buy them. That's why they are not readily available. But it si different at the garden section in a shopping complex. I use to get mine there too.

Korean, maybe if u have difficulties to find peat moss, u can perhaps try coconut peat as the alternative medium, but there are certain drawbacks, such as easier to break down, and as Robert said, will have a smell when decayed and an attractive medium for the ants.

What do you want to use the peat moss for? If you want sphagnum moss I can post to you but you have to pay me the postage larr... The ones I got are the high quality New Zealand sphagnum moss.
I'll try to look out for peat moss for you too.

haiz.....u all are good but me ....muar shopping complex does not has garden section so i i i.... can't find anyyyyyy peat moss sell in Muar Korean, u can come to Melaka Mahkota Parade. Go to Parkson underground floor. There's a DIY shop selling Horti Peat Moss  There's also a nursery near my house that sells sphagnom moss, but it is not the New Zealand quality. I'm not sure where it is from. But it was packed at Cameron Highlands and distributed to the nurseries here. Take a look. However, sphagnum moss stocks are not always available at the nursery here. Have to make order first.  |

The peat moss, im not sure because i just saw it + theres no price tag at the package. But i'm sure it is no more than RM10 because i bought once from Ace Hardware at Mid Valley, it cost RM7 per packet. The package size is about the package of organic potting soil but the peat moss is not full. About half to 3/4 of the package volume. The package is green in colour. The sphagnum moss, it cost RM5 per packet here. |

DIY shop in underground floor? ?where i can't imagine go to the lowest floor. U will see Giant, if i'm not mistaken. Do not go there, but look for a stall that sells massaging chair etc, OSIM if not mistaken. The DIY shop is just the opposite of the OSIM stall. |
