The possibility of growing moss graffiti occurred to me during one of those dull days at work when your thoughts wander. A quick internet search showed me that I wasn’t the first person to ask the question, “How does moss grow?” In fact, many genius gardeners had even come up with a recipe for a moss milkshake! Next I wondered if you could use this recipe to grow your own designs and create a kind of moss graffiti, and it would appear that you can.

The Moss Graffiti recipe was previously published in Interlude Magazine, Issue 2, and Craftivity, edited by Tsia Carson, Harper Collins, 2006.
