Selaginella uncinata, commonly known as 'Peacock Moss', is a strikingly iridescent species of spikemoss, admired for its shimmering blue-green foliage. Native to humid subtropical regions, this low-growing, mat-forming plant thrives in terrariums, shaded gardens, and as an underplanting in tropical landscapes.

Care Tips:

  • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light to deep shade. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate foliage.
  • Water: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. It is intolerant of drying out.
  • Humidity: Requires high humidity (above 60%) to prevent leaf desiccation. Ideal for terrariums or bathrooms.
  • Media: Prefers well-draining, rich organic soil with good moisture retention, such as a peat-based mix.
  • Temperature: Grows best in warm conditions between 18°C and 26°C, avoiding cold drafts and sudden temperature drops.
  • Fertiliser: Apply a diluted liquid fertiliser every 4–6 weeks during the growing season for optimal health.
  • Repotting: Rarely needs repotting; refresh the soil every couple of years if grown in containers.
