Selaginella Uncinata
Nicknamed 'Blue Spikemoss' or 'Peacock Moss', the Selaginella Uncinata is not a moss at all, but a low-growing plant native to southern China. Perfect for terrariums, this shade loving creeper displays a metallic blue-green hue on its leaves, which spread and fan out like moss.
The Uncinata grows aerial roots along the main stems very quickly, making it an extremely easy plant to propagate. We take cuttings from our mother plant to pot up and use in our terrariums; we are now sharing these propagations with you, so you can add them to your terrariums / collections.
If you are wanting to grow this Blue Spikemoss outside of a terrarium (which can be done), then we recommend keeping it out of direct sun, as these are low-growing plants in their natural habitat, not used to any intense light. Keep consistent moisture and boost the humidity, by placing it next to other plants or on a pebble tray.
