This is decorative material for wet pools.
The black peat clod absorbs water superficially, and swells imperceptibly.
It can make the surface beautifully planted with mosses, ferns and even epiphytes using it as a raft when the pieces are hung.
They can be sawed, drilled and even dug!
Inserted into a tropical terrarium in just 4 months they were covered with thriving vegetation!
Peat is the first level of carbonization of plant sediments that have not decomposed completely and which over time are deposited and compressed, becoming peat.
These are therefore grasses, leaves and shrubs, insects and other animals which in marshy soils, such as swamps or moors, have been completely covered by water and which in the absence of oxygen have not managed to decompose completely.
The perennial layer of water on surface does not allow bacteria to break down the organic material which deposits on the ground every year and creates a compact layer millimetre after millimetre.
