Rare Selaginella from Borneo with beautiful fronds. It likes it moist and warm. You will receive a plant in a 6 cm pot.

Just like the other members of the Selaginella genus, this enchanting moss fern also has pretty, delicate fronds. What makes it particularly spectacular, however, is its intensely pronounced iridescence, which makes its fronds shimmer in a fascinating turquoise blue. The fact that it is relatively easy to care for and grows quickly makes it all the more popular.
The product photos show examples of the plant. You will receive a specimen that corresponds to the product photos in terms of size, shape and coloring.
