Selaginella uncinata, also known as Peacock Moss or Peacock Fern, stands out with its delicate foliage displaying bluish, metallic hues that vary with the light. This small, creeping plant, with an almost magical appearance, brings a touch of freshness and originality to any indoor decor.
It thrives in humid, shaded environments, making it an excellent companion for terrariums or naturally more humid areas of the home. It requires a bit more attention than other houseplants, but its unique appearance is well worth the effort.
Non-toxic to animals.
