Splendid Feather Moss

Slo.: blečeče sedje - Habitat: Mixed wood, under Picea abies, rocky, almost flat terrain, limestone bedrock, humid place, in half-shade, partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies, average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 620 m (1.770 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. - Substratum: rocks and ground soil. - Comment: Growing in large patches among larger rocks and trees. Branch leafs have no nerves. This is a quite common but large and beautiful moss with characteristic red stems. Capsules are uncommon and I havent seen them yet. - Ref.: (1) V.Wirth, R.Dll, Farbatlas Flechten und Moose, Ulmer (2000), p 304. (2 ) I. Atherton, S. Bosanquet, M.
