Tropicals
Selaginella spp.
Spikemoss
Tiny, overlapping leaves create a soft, moss-like texture, although Selaginella is neither a true moss nor a flowering plant. Common moisture-loving indoor forms suit humid terrariums and sheltered containers. The assortment is not assigned a species; specialized dry-rest types need different care.
