Ditrichum moss (Ditrichum)

Ditrichum moss

Ditrichum moss features distinct elongated leaves tapered to a fine point, commonly forming dense tufts. Its slender stems, often cloaked in a vibrant green, navigate harsh rocky terrains, leveraging moisture from its immediate environment. This adaptation not only aids in its survival but helps ditrichum moss thrive in nutrient-poor, rugged conditions typically found in alpine or barren landscapes.
