Selaginella rupestris aka Ledge Spikemoss

Ledge Spikemoss’s native range is Worldwide.

Ledge Spikemoss should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Ledge Spikemoss is very sensitive to dry soil. To ensure your Northern Selaginella is thriving and blooming, choose a potting soil that retains moisture. A good soil should still allow for adequate drainage and contain lots of organic matter. Coco coir or sphagnum moss are great soil additives that will help to retain moisture and provide your Ledge Spikemoss with the nutrients it needs for healthy growth. Make sure to mix these soil additives into the potting soil before planting and water the soil thoroughly. By providing your Ledge Spikemoss with a well-draining, moisture-retaining soil, you can help to maximize its growth and keep it blooming.

To ensure optimal growth, the Ledge Spikemoss prefers bright indirect light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

The Ledge Spikemoss is characterized by its slow growth and doesn't need fertilization in addition to its potting soil. By renewing the soil in its pot once a year, it should have enough nutrition. Remember, plants get their energy from sunlight, not from any fertilizers.
