My local nursery is taking care some pots of sphagnum moss. How would I take care of it?

A newbie at taking care of carnivorous plants. I live in Australia, Perth WA.

Keep the moss in high humidity, with indirect or low light.
To create humidity, you can try bagging it.
You can also help it acclimate by misting it frequently.

Cox Nature has a growing guide for moss: https://www.coxnature.com/index.php?rou ... ogger_id=6

If you are just trying to keep it alive, the pot is fine. If trying to propagate it for the nursery, you can make a grow box in a tub of water. They will grow faster with more light, as long as there is water to prevent drying out.
