    I intend to made a moss floor around my hardscape
    Just wondering will the moss on the wire mesh "creep" to those odd corners?
    It's simple...but no one said it will be easy

    Depends on what moss your using. Usually mosses don't grow outwards too much in a short period of time, cause they usually grow thick. Maybe try taiwan moss, its probably the faster growing one in terms of length.

    What about normal Pelia? It is possible to tie it to mesh?

    I think Taiwan moss grows up-and-up-and up..... It's good as a moss to use for bonsai effect, or if you want to grow a moss bush.
    For moss to cover floor, you could try weeping moss. It stays low.

    My Taiwan moss doesn't grow upward. Perhaps we have different lighting conditions.

    What kind of moss you have? Used to have spiky moss fore-ground, do creep outward, but not much.

    How your moss floor progress so far?

    I've asked the same question a couple of months ago. True to the advice given by the gurus, the moss extended and hid the hideous edges of the wire mesh.

    Its been a month since you last posted this question, think by now, the edges should be properly covered or reaching there soon....
