What exactly is marimo?
Although typically referred to as a moss ball, marimo is actually a form of spherical algae that lives on the floors of freshwater lakes. These aquatic plants start out at approximately 0.6" (1.5cm) and grow at about 5 mm a year, eventually reaching sizes of up to 10" (25cm) and living for as long as a century.

What is so special about marimo?
Marimo is considered so rare and special in Japan that this aquatic plant was once declared a National Treasure and has a three day festival dedicated entirely to the marimo plant. Children in Japan even regard their marimo as favorite pets. More than just a plant, marimo has an intriguing history and is symbolic of eternal love, good luck and prosperity. Presently, this beautiful green algae has become quite popular and is making its way into homes all over the world.

What will my child need to do to take care of marimo?
A little love goes a long way with the low maintenance Luffy Nano Marimo Moss Balls. The only basic requirement for this aquatic plant is water. Marimo prefer room temperature water and minimal sunlight. For your plant to thrive, try to change the water approximately once every two weeks.

I am a teacher. What can my students learn from growing marimo?
