Low pincushion moss

Also known as: White moss

Low pincushion moss is a cushion moss that thrives in shaded, forest environments, often forming dense, white-green mounds that resemble puffs of snow. Its thick, upright shoots contribute to a spongy touch, with leaves that are broadly curved to capture and retain water, a survival adaptation for its woodland habitats.
