Taxiphyllum 'Spiky' moss

Product description

About the species

Spiky moss originally comes from Asia and grows 2-10 cm tall. Best described as Christmas moss's big brother, it is larger and forms many deep green, branching shoots. Spiky moss does best on vertical surfaces where the branching shoots will be visible.

A beautiful carpet effect is possible if you plant small tufts in the bottom substrate with a small gap. It grows quickly and thrives with very low light intensity. The spiky moss is also perfect vegetation for shrimp in your aquarium and also good as a hiding place for small shrimps
