They are one of the primitive plants. Go back to the good old days of Brontosaurus!

Well now its just even cooler! I want one to be the spectrum opposite of my rhipsalis bacciferus & hatiora, but similar form. May I ask where you got it?

From UC Davis as one of 2 or3 cuttings. I see them online from several sellers. Not the rarity they used to be. I think of all the various Huperzia and Lycopodium species,this is the easiest, and it aint THAT easy!

If I had to do it over again?..I would use those pots for them now made that make the plant grow upside down so the weight of the branches don't snap as in upright. Back in 2004 that was unknown. The internet sure changed plant growing.
