It appears that you're growing it on a moss-covered plaque of some sort - treefern / cork? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpl Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 yes, exactly- its a piece of cork covered with moss- ive decided to transplant it when i saw oictures of it growing in the wild spots- since then it grows far more better and looks like a wild plant.
