Club Moss Care

 I had a really hard time finding useful information on Club Moss but between on all the sites I went to here are the basics you need to know. 


Latin name: Selaginella species
Common name: Spreading Club Moss
Climate: Tropical rainforest climateMinimal temperature: 16-18°C (60-64°F)
Optimal temperature: 26-28°C (78-82°F)
Recommended place: mid-shade, no more then 2 hours of direct light per day.
Height: 20 cm (7.8 in.)Flower color: multicolor
Repotting: every 36 months (3 years)
Origin territory: South America

Water: These can be mounted on tree fern or grown in baskets and thus require frequent, drenching water applications.

Note: I have my Club Moss in a plant tower with lots of tropical plants and ferns and I mist it twice a day. It's keeping it's beautiful bright color and looks to be doing well!
