Quality and Botanical Commitment
1. Live and Exclusive Sphagnum Moss At EUSPAGNE, we take taxonomy very seriously. Each portion of moss is delivered in an individual container, correctly labeled with its specific botanical species.
Note on color: As this is living matter, hues may vary from photographs due to lighting, the season, or the plant's own genetics. This natural diversity is a guarantee that you are receiving a living, authentic product, not an artificial reproduction.
2. 3D Designs and Botanical Art Our 3D printing section is more than just decoration. We offer technical planters and relief art designed specifically for the cultivation and aesthetics of carnivorous plants, using durable, high-quality materials.
3. Precision Tools We know that success in cultivation depends on the details. That is why we provide you with the same measuring tools that we use ourselves. Correctly measuring water parameters is the key to maintaining your demanding species in optimal conditions.
Sphagnum Capillifolium
Sphagnum Capillifolium (Live Inoculum)
Morphology & Architecture: A prominent species within the Acutifolia section, characterized by forming dense mats or compact hummocks. Its phyllids (leaves) are distinctively small and triangular-lanceolate, giving the plant a fine and delicate visual texture. The caulid (stem) typically presents a greenish coloration, ensheathed by a hyaline cortex (hyalodermis).
Hydrological Physiology (Transparent Cells): Its ecological success lies in its dimorphic cellular architecture. It possesses a vast network of hyalocysts (large, dead, transparent cells) that act as water reservoirs, interspersed among the chlorocysts (photosynthetic cells). This structure grants it superior hygroscopic capacity, allowing it to maintain turgidity and metabolic activity in peatland environments.
Chromatism: While it forms green foundations, it is renowned for its rubellous response: under optimal light conditions, it develops red, vinaceous, or brown pigments, creating an attractive visual mosaic.
Supply Format: Live inoculum portion: 6 x 3 cm (approx).
