Information

Description

Description

A striking epiphytic clubmoss from the cloud forests of South America, producing dense, pendulous tassels of bright green, needle-like leaves that cascade elegantly from baskets or mounts. It is prized as a living ornamental for its architectural form and lush, evergreen texture.

  • Light: Bright indirect light with 50–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which desiccates the delicate foliage.
  • Temperature: 55–72°F (13–22°C). Cool to intermediate grower; cool temperatures and good air movement are essential.
  • Humidity: 75–90%; very high humidity is critical. Best grown in a cool, humid terrarium or highland setup.
  • Watering: Keep consistently moist; never allow to dry out. Mist frequently and ensure excellent drainage to prevent rot at the base.

Additional Notes

Best grown mounted on cork or tree fern, or in a hanging basket with live sphagnum moss. Ships bare root, well-established. Grown at Ecuagenera, Ecuador.
