Five reasons to keep moss in your yard

Do you know or live with someone intent on eradicating moss from the lawn, garden or patio? Here are five good reasons to let it be:

1. Moss does not compete with grass or other plants: it grows where most other plants will not.
2. Moss is not mildew, mold or algae, nor is it related to them: it merely likes similar conditions.
3. Moss does not invade bricks, shingles, stucco or concrete. It has no roots, only hairlike rhizomes that tether it to a substrate.
4. Moss is a valuable home gardening asset. Live moss plants sell for $5 - $18 per square foot.
5. Save money and time on lawn care.  Moss requires no mowing (or gas), water, fertilizer, lime, herbicide or pesticide.

If you can think of more reasons, please post them!
