- RM30.00
Rusty swan-neck moss, scientifically known as "Campylopus flexuosus", is a moss typically forming dark green tufts with a distinctive feature of reddish-brown coloration on the stems and leaf bases, giving it a "rusty" appearance; its leaves are long and awl-like, with a prominent nerve that occupies a large portion of the leaf base, often curving slightly to resemble a swan's neck, particularly when dry; it grows in acidic habitats like peatlands, rotting logs, and rocky crevices, and is often found in shaded or exposed areas.
Key characteristics:
- Color: Dark green tufts with reddish-brown stems and leaf auricles.
- Leaves: Long, narrow, and pointed, with a prominent nerve that takes up a large part of the leaf base.
- Growth form: Can form dense mats or loose tufts depending on conditions.
