Taxiphyllum spiky in cup

'Spiky' is Asian and grows tall 2-10 cm. Better described as the older brother of the Christmas moss, it is larger and forms many intense green rhymes. The pointed moss is better suited to the vertical surfaces where the branched shoots will be shown.

A beautiful carpet effect is possible if small tufts are planted in the lower substrate with a small internal space. It grows rapidly and thrives with a very low light intensity.
