Trichocolea

Trichocolea features distinct, lush, hanging moss-like fronds that thrive in damp, shadowy environments typically found in boggy or wetland areas. Its foliage, often a vibrant green, can sometimes adopt a darker hue in shadier spots. This leafy growth not only adds a unique texture to the forest floor but also helps trichocolea in retaining moisture, critical for its survival in such humid ecosystems.
