Supposedly new mosses

Post by scientist0724 »

Anyone know anything about Plagiomnium affine or Plagiomniu, trichomanes? True aquatics?

I've tried both of them from AquaticMagic a few years ago. Neither lasted very long submerged...

Ditto here. I was most disappointed in the affine. Especially since it looked so amazing in the picture they posted! It pretty much stuck around for a little bit then just withered away. I cried a little. I admit. :wink:

OK. I wondered about that because it's the same company that sells the star moss and I heard that that one dies submersed too. I guess that these mosses are only good for terrariums or paludariums.
