Selaginella
|
Selaginella braunii (Arborvitae Fern)
Part Sun to Shade Zone: 6-9 18" tall Origin: China
(syn: Selaginella pallescens or incorrectly, Selaginella caulescens and Selaginella involvens) This selaginella (fern relative) is one of the easiest to grow in a woodland setting. The dark green, lacy, semi-evergreen fronds rise to 18" tall from a slowly creeping rhizome. In 3 years you could expect a 2' wide mass. A grouping of these in a woodland setting is indeed spectacular! Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml) #01506

Selaginella sanguinolenta var. compressa (Twiggy Spikemoss)
Part Sun to Light ShadeZone: 6-8, at least 2" tall Origin: Japan
Oh, so cute and oh, so painfully slow! This has long been our favorite dry rock garden selaginella, but it has taken nearly a decade to build up enough stock to offer. Our parent plant is 12 years old and only 2" tall x 10" wide. In foliage, twiggy spikemoss resembles a clump of moss that was plugged into a high voltage electrical outlet. Come to think of it, it also looks a lot like my worn-out grill scrubbing brush. Although it's tough as nails, either in sun or shade, plant it in a special spot where you won't lose it...alpine troughs are a good idea. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml) #05120
