  • Selaginella martensii Jori commonly known as Spike Moss, Martens' Clubmoss and Rose of Jericho is an unusual and rare real evergreen Indoor. With its attractive bright green ferny, mossy appearance, it is a real conversation starter and a must have addition to any house plant enthusiast’s collection.

  • This houseplant native to Mexico and Central America is not a true moss but rather a type of lycophyte, which are the oldest living vascular plants dating back to 410 million years ago. With its clumping growing habit, it can reach a height of up to 30cm, depending on its growing conditions. NOTE: the decorative pot is not included, it will arrive in a 9cm pot, plastic growing pot.

Watering

Spike Moss likes to be watered little but often, with their soil kept on the moist side but not waterlogged.

Best Growing Conditions
Best Growing Conditions

It likes to grow at an average temperature of 18-30°C, especially in the colder months. They also love high humidity levels making it ideal for growing in terrariums or growing in a bathroom or kitchen. Misting often will help increase the plant's humidity too. It is not advised to grow near a radiator, as this can lead to the plant drying out too quickly.
