My first Palu

Please dont tell me you are finding all of these lovely plants in your backyard I hate Edmonton

I hear you there, Grimm- anything I could find here I'd have to find under a foot of snow right now. It's tough just getting plants home from the store.

[Grimm]

Yeah its really annoying actually...Im looking for some moss and the only garbage I can find is the dried up crappy sphagnum in a bag....And it never gets green anyways so I dont even bother with that anymore. I want RICCIA MOSS!!!!!!!

I just grabbed a sandwich bag full of the stuff yesterday from a person on a local aquarium forum- try your local folks there.

[Grimm]

Good idea...I did grab a little moss once from a place....But I figured they owed it to me since I spent 400$ haha

But I will definately try to raid the pet store tanks

eee I have no idea of species on most of this stuff. The only things I've purchased so far are the two air plants, the pitcher plant, and the bromeliad. The rest I collected on some trails near my house. I can't wait to go up into the forest and find stuff . Its funny cus I went for this long walk to find moss, got some bits here and there, came back and found the most amazing, thick, green moss right in my front yard. Growing in "full sun" next to the road. Figures! I guess good old rainy humid vancouver is good for something after all!

Oh and humidity was 80 before a spritz, and hung at 90 for a few hours after. Is ok?

Can't ask for much better than that.

I wonder if that's the same plant that Stimpy found in her neighbourhood... Cymbalaria muralis, she said.

Hmmm, quick google search has it looking pretty similar. It is a little viny. Very delicate. I will see if I can go back and collect a larger specimen
