Great picture Brian. I'll have to take a look at my Azalea and see if I can tell the difference.
I was at a local bonsai club meeting the other day and someone told my I had "bad moss" on my tree. They said I should remove it and get some "Good moss", but they couldn't tell me the difference.
So, what's the difference?
"Bad moss" has an aggressive root system...but the roots run 3/4" deep...

I had that "bad moss" growing in my 2 now dead picea abies.
It looks cool. But I didn't think it was moss.
I'm moss binging right now.
I smell like buttermilk.

Yep! Pretty quiet! And lots of pep! Men is kinda old. The new ones are scary quick!
Something about instant torque intrigues me enough to make this a Spring purchase... http://www.harley-davidson.com/content/h-d/en_US/home/motorcycles/project-livewire.html Perhaps my last "ride" but I can go out in style! They say it will be a few years but honest I doubt it...

It's the silvery moss at the top of the blue circle that I look for but seldom find."Bad moss" has an aggressive root system. Around here, it's this stuff; some call it Irish Moss. Don't know what it is, but the roots run 3/4" deep, it is coarse, and difficult to get rid of.
"Good moss" stays on top of the soil and has effectively no root system. It's velvety and low-growing.

And are the greens ON the root OK, or should I gently brush it off?
