5 functions
Sphagnum moss plants can absorb 20 to 25 times their own weight of water, and its excessive growth in forest areas often leads to the destruction of forests. During the First World War, Canada, Britain, Italy, and other countries had used absorbent properties of peat moss plants instead of cotton dressings because of the lack of cotton wool. The peat formed after long-term deposition of peat moss and other plants has a ton of fuel heat equivalent to 0.5 tons of coal. Sphagnum moss plants are still the best packaging materials for long-distance transportation such as seedlings and flowers.
Also has medicinal value, efficacy: heat and eyesight; itching
