Sphagnum palustre, also known as prairie sphagnum or blunt-leaved bogmoss, is a species of peat moss from the genus Sphagnum. It is found all over the world and is particularly widespread in the British Isles. It is capable of soaking up water up to 30 times its own dry weight due to its elastic spiral fibers. It is not considered to be threatened or endangered, and is being used in a project called Mossclone to track air quality in Europe.
