terra cotta pots with mossy aged finish


Question
Do you know how to make the terra cotta pots with the mossy aged finish?  I have read some time back that it can be done with yogurt.  Thanks

Answer
Hello Marilyn,

I don't know how to make moss grow on the outside of terra cotta pots other than how it grows naturally over time when they are kept fairly moist all of the time.  If pots are kept moist in a warm shady location, moss will grow slowly on them, possibly covering them in about a year or so.  

Sorry that I couldn't help you with your question.
