Notes

'Brownii' club moss (Selaginella kraussiana 'Brownii') is a perennial for containers, rock gardens, and ground cover. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 11 and warmer, down to about 40°F (4°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to wet, clay soil. It sits low on the menu for rabbits. It forms a low, creeping mat of evergreen foliage and grows at a rapid rate.

Pairs well with Baby's tears, Wandering dude, and Gloxinia.
