I'm new to the list; been lurking for a few weeks...but am unlurking
as I would be very interested in knowing whether native moss is
harmful. Have two Sarracenia growing in pots. One pots surface is
totally covered with moss. The Sarracenia seems happy - is producing
3 flowers where it had only 1 last year. But, if the moss is
harmful, I will remove it forthwith!
