Sphagnum Contortum
Sphagnum Contortum (Live Inoculum)
Ecology & Geochemistry: A demanding species and bioindicator of minerotrophic environments and base-rich fens. Unlike most sphagna, it tolerates and prefers unusually high pH and electrical conductivity levels (alkaline waters), thriving in spring flushes and riparian zones with low nitrogen enrichment (oligotrophic).
Morphology & Chromatism: A member of the Subsecunda section, its epithet (contortum) refers to the frequently curved or twisted architecture of its branches. It is a heliophilic species (intolerant of dense shade) that, under adequate light exposure, develops a distinctive coloration ranging from ochre to copper and ferruginous gold hues, offering a unique metallic aesthetic.
Supply Format: Live inoculum portion: 6 x 3 cm (approx).
