Is it ok to grow sarrs in 100% sphagnum moss?

I would say yes. Some would do better than others like purps, but overall, yes.

They grow terrific in straight sphagnum. I think they grow faster. I would grow all of them in it if it wasn't so expensive. Seedlings really take off in it.

My best specimens are grown in live 100% sphagnum moss. I collect the moss out my bogs and pop them in and they grow better than those in peat/perlite
Cheers
