Moss Fern

Selaginella kraussiana

Pet safe
Moss Fern
Light
medium to low indirect. It burns in direct sun faster than almost anything else here
Water
keep constantly damp and humid. If it dries out once it browns off and rarely recovers, so it is happiest under glass or in a steamy bathroom
Toxicity
not toxic to dogs or cats. Despite the name it is a spikemoss rather than a true fern

Toxicity confirmed against ASPCA Animal Poison Control.
