 Pittsburgh as well as this Imported Peat Moss. 



Feat Moss consists mostly of partly decayed Sphagnum moss. The best grade of Peat 

 Moss comes from Germany and is light, fibrous and porous, and light brown in color as 

 compared to Peat from Ireland or this country, which Is almost black, heavy and more
