Plant Them on Your Island

ACNH - Plant Glowing Moss

Glowing Moss can be planted on the ground similar to weeds and flowers. They give out a faint glow at night and release glowing particles when you walk over them, which makes them great for decorating some outdoor spaces.

Glowing Moss Will Not Spread

Glowing Moss can only be acquired by taking Boat Tours with Kapp'n, you cannot grow them on your island, which also means they will not spread out like typical weeds.

Sell for 25 Bells

ACNH - Sell Glowing Moss

You can sell Glowing Moss for 25 Bells at Nook's Cranny. However, as it does not sell for much, we recommend using them for crafting or as decoration instead.
