Calliergon cordifolium
Calliergon cordifolium
Heart-leaved calliergon moss is an aquatic to semi-aquatic moss that requires permanently wet or waterlogged conditions to thrive. It prefers cool, shaded to partially lit environments and is well suited to bog gardens, pond margins, or paludariums. Avoid letting it dry out, as desiccation is quickly fatal to this moisture-dependent species.
