mossier

Having more bryophytes

Mossier is the comparative form of mossy—more covered with or resembling moss: The north side of the boulder was mossier than the south.

Like mossy, it can describe anything with that soft, green, overgrown quality: The older gravestones grew mossier with each passing year.
