Today I received some Java moss from an internet retailer and I am unsure
of how to plant it. Right now I have it sitting on the gravel and it
looks
really ugly. Maybe this is just because it is not established yet. What
are your recommendations?

Also, I purchased a Java fern and I understand that it should not be
planted in gravel. Is this really the case? I think it looks great in
the
gravel but I don't want it to die. Thank you.

Java Fern can be planted in gravel but the rhizome must never be covered by
the gravel or it will rot and die.
