Baby Marimos here!! For those of you who know what they are I am giving away 2 baby marimo. For those of you that dont they are quite interesting and Im sure you will love them. These are 100% real marimo, I cleaned out my bigger marimo and rolled these babies.
A Marimo is a rare growth form of the species where algae grow into large green balls with a velvety appearance and are only found naturally in a few lakes in the northern hemisphere. Therefore they are not actually moss, they are unique form of algae.
They are known as japanese moss ball that grow about 5mm per year and can live up to 200 years!!
Marimo have been around since the 1920s and are a japanese national treasure. Japan holds festivals annualy for marimo and believe they give off good luck and are a symbol of everlasting love.
They are also compared to the earth in being green and round and their need to rotate to receive light on all sides; they also float sometimes depending on the water and light and roll around on the bottom floor!
In Japan at lake Akan a great effort is spent to conserve the lake balls. Marimo are only known to form in Japan, estonia, iceland and scottland.
They can grow rather large but very slowly, it is said that taking excellent care of your pet marimo will make all your wishes come true!
