Selaginella Kraussiana Aurea

Design with this plant

Overview

Golden Club Moss (Selaginella kraussiana 'Aurea') is an eye-catching, trailing perennial. It boasts vibrant, golden-yellow foliage that forms a dense, moss-like mat reaching up to 6 inches in height and spreading roughly 24 inches. Ideal for shaded to partially shaded areas, this low-maintenance fern ally requires moist, well-drained soil. It adds a splash of color to ground covers, terrariums, and as an underplanting for shade-loving shrubs. Hardy in USDA zones 9-11.
