    I found some interesting looking moss by the pond, with big bright green leaves growing emersed in soil...
    I grow it emersed for a month and it's growing very well... now I identified it finally, it's Plagiomnium affine.

    It looks like this:



    It's really beautiful... Can it be grown submered????

    For example me

    Actually, it is trying to grow under water, but it doesn't look nice...



    And than after one, maybe two months it's dying.

    There may be some differences between different populations, but I don't think it's easy to grow it submerged.

    can Plagiomnium Trichomane be grown submerged? I have ordered some from aquatic magic and will be disappointed if this vendor turns out to be dishonest.
    kind regards,

    It's an outrage that aquatic magic feel they can sell these species as "slow growing but able to withstand a wide range of water conditions" if they truly cannot grow aquatically.

    Yea I ordered quite a few of these from Aquaticmagic as well. All melt off eventually.

    Too bad it was too long ago or I would have dispute my purchase through paypal.
