Cos it dont`t like warm sunny conditions.
Moss likes dampness, so it grows on the side that is wettest. In some parts of the UK that is often the west side.
they dont know where south is
Myth. It grows on all sides, but more often on the north side of trees where that is the least sunny.
Hi,
beacuse it's less sunny on the north side (my north sided garden is really mossy) - but moss will grow on all sides of a tree just moreso on the north!
Hope this helps,
Sophia
