Selaginella uncinata 'Peacock Moss'
cancel Sold out
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.
