Sphagnum affine, the imbricate bogmoss, is a species of peat moss, also called sphagnum moss, that is exploited to make commercial peat products. It varies significantly in size and colour but is otherwise regular in appearance, and it often forms hummocks, carpets or cushions. It can typically be ochreous in colour. The moss is found in base-rich environments such as fens, marshes, ditches and flushed bogs, and it can occasionally appear in very wet sites.
