I purchased two moss sheets at Smith & Hawkens in California a couple of weeks ago. These are NOT on their website. They are 18X48 and have a webbed nylon backing. They were 30 dollars each so not cheap. The packaging showed them being used as a craft item, glueing it to pots. It did not show it being used as a basket liner but the clerk thought it would work fine. I asked if there were chemicals or anything that would be harmful and she said no. I was able to use it nicely. It held together well and folded easily. I used one sheet per basket. I made cuts in it after I had it layed in the basket, pulled the small plants through the sides. I like the bright green and texture. I noticed I used a lot more soil as the fabric is thinner. It seems to be holding the water well, but still drains out the bottom. This is just recently planted (two days ago) but will give you an idea. If you are interested, you would need to call a store near you and see if they have it.
