Selaginella sp. “Indonesia”

Selaginella sp. “Indonesia”: There isn’t much to go on for this particular cultivar of spikemoss, as it’s actually being distributed mainly into the aquarium hobby via aquarium plant producers! It is safe to assume that this variety probably originates from somewhere in Indonesia and likes the same wet terrestrial conditions that most Selaginellas destined for vivarium and terrarium care appreciate.

General Care Information

Like most any spikemoss, they’ll do well in lower light and high humidity. Pretty standard stuff! Note that varieties produced via the aquarium trade are distributed in “aquarium plant pots” and are set up in rockwool; they may be “fresher” cuttings based on my experience and may or may not yet have developed much in the way of roots depending on how recently they were potted up. I should emphasize that the aquarium-trade Selaginella are not “aquatic plants” in any fashion!
