I will be atempting to culture this species of club moss in a captive environment. This moss seems to like mildly to severly acidic soils within a one to two hundred foot radius of mid to high altidude fast flowing, cool streams (Gunnin 2012). It prefers mottled shade in well drained, but damp soil. It seems to grow where there is an abundance of smaller moss species in the family Pottiaceae. I will write more on the subject once I have studied it more thouroughly.

Sounds great! When I opened up a few bags of dried sphag from Mosser Lee and put them in a tub of water, I went back a few days later and there was some nice green club moss in there. Thought it was a weed so I threw it out. When I order from www.pitcherplant.org for Christmas, I'll add in some club moss along with the sphagnum I'll be purchasing. ;D I also found some club moss in a recent trade that involved some sphag, but I dropped it somewhere. I'll try to find that today, could make something interesting to culture in my sphagnum containers!  |

by chance, how do I pronounce the first two words in the topic title?
