Selaginella Erythropus Ruby Red is a beautiful choice for terrarium-like setups and vivariums. Ruby Red Moss is a popular plant due to the unique coloration of its foliage. Under optimal conditions the underside will be a ruby red color, contrasting nicely with the green to dark green surface coloration. Unlike other Selaginella species, Ruby Red is a slow grower, preferring partial shade and high humidity. Under the right conditions, Red Club Moss is a easy plant to care for and a great way to add a pop of color to any setup.
