16 Moss Facts for Kids

First Appeared: 470 million years ago

Moss prefers to grow in cool, damp conditions that aren’t in direct sunlight. However, there are many species of moss that are drought tolerant and can thrive in a hot, dry environment.

Moss likes to grow on rocks, soil (various types), trees (both alive and downed) and along streams.

Most species of moss are green, but some species can come in different colors, like blue or yellow.

Moss use their tiny leaves to obtain water and nutrients.

Just like all other plants, moss uses the photosynthesis process to create energy.

Moss don’t have roots like vascular plants, instead they use threadlike rhizoids to anchor themselves.

Moss reproduces using spores and do not produce any flowers, pollen, fruits or seeds.

There are around 12,000 species of plants that are considered moss.

Species of moss are found all over the world, including Antarctica.

Most species of moss are small, but some species can reach a large size.
