The Sphagnum capillifolium is a species with great variability, characterized by small leaves, erect branches and a high tendency to assume a red pigmentation. The variety that I sell is among those that best show this characteristic, assuming a blood-red color, which becomes more intense when exposed to direct sunlight and to strong temperature range between day and night. It does not tolerate extreme heat, so it is advisable to avoid temperatures above 40°C (104°F).

Notice: The identification of the sphagnum species of this site is not 100% certain, because it has not yet been possible to make genetic analysis, but only morphological. For this reason, the identification of some species may be subject to changes due to new and more accurate analysis. When the identification of an already distributed clone is changed, the species name is changed, but the clone code remains the original one. For this reason, it is important to keep a record of the clone codes in your collection.
