Irish Moss and Baby Tears

(soleirolia soleirolii)

Baby tears and Irish moss tolerate a moderately bright light location.

The plants prefer room temperature and will tolerate cooler temperatures well.

A uniformly moist soil is preferred. Water it thoroughly as soon as the soil feels dry to the touch. Drain the excess water in the saucer at the base of the pot to prevent root rot and to protect furniture.

Key tip for success: Irregular watering will cause leaf spotting and leaf loss.
