I have quite a few patches of Oregon Green Moss growing in the soil of my backyard. Later into the winter it builds up big mounds. Grows during the winter. I noticed a huge difference in how it grows in reaction to water. The more moist areas have more lush, brighter green moss with more flaring of foliage.

This is a very common moss. I see it growing all over the trees in forests around here, but it has a different growth pattern. It has longer fibers and hangs down quite a bit more, plus it is more dry. I may take a few more pictures of it in local forests and update this thread in the near future.
Anyone else have pics of Oregon Green Moss or something similar?
