DEEP DEEP DARK GREEN

Bryoandersonia illecebra is a common moss along trails and road banks where it grows over soil, low rocks, and occasionally tree bases. This robust moss is easily recognized in the field by its plump, rounded shoots. If you take a close up look, you’ll see the leaves curve/cup around the stem, and therefore, scientists refer to this species as spoon moss. Viewing the details, you can observe a translucency in the leaves that adds extra light reflectance and color intensity. Bryoandersonia has an almost electric emerald green vibrancy/ A very shiny moss. In the shade, it will be green. In sunnier locations, it will have a mottled coloration of greens and golds. The plants are loosely connected to each other in colonies. A terrestrial moss, Bryoandersonia can live on rich soil, rocks or tree stumps. A major plus is that Bryoandersonia tolerates a high heat index.
