Clubmoss thrives in cool, humid conditions with consistently moist, well-draining soil and indirect to partial light. Mist regularly to maintain the high humidity it requires, as dry air will cause browning of the delicate foliage. It is best suited to terrariums or shaded garden borders in temperate climates.
