Moss, one of the few Bryophyte (embryophytes - land plants) on earth, that are so unique as compared to the usual plants we commonly know! Unlike plants that depend on tissue cells within them to transport water for growth, Moss do not have true vascular tissue to transport water within them. They depend on their surrounding environment to nourish themselves like raining, due and when we shower over them with water.
Moss propagate and reproduce via spore instead of seeds like common plant. They like damp and slightly acidic soil. But, they are really hardy IF AND ONLY IF the environment is in right condition for them to grow.
I've some moss grew naturally on my bonsai surface, which I think some spore may have flown from somewhere and somehow landed there (so we could have also breathe in some!!). Sometimes ago, I decided to do an experiment to grow them in several separate pots.
Since, I've enjoyed the fun of taking pictures, especially zoom-in to see their physical, and took some clips of them, and did few moss terrarium as can be seen in my video.
Enjoy...
