Lycopodium sitchense – Northern Club Moss Live Plant | 1 Foot Wild Harvested Vine | Alaska Native Ground Cover | Shade Garden Friendly | Easy to Grow
Add a unique native groundcover to your woodland garden with Lycopodium sitchense, commonly known as Northern Club Moss. Despite its common name, this fascinating plant is not a true moss but a primitive vascular plant related to ferns. Its trailing evergreen stems create a soft, textured carpet that brings natural beauty to shaded garden spaces.
Wild harvested in Alaska, Northern Club Moss thrives in cool, moist environments and is well suited for woodland gardens, native plant collections, terrariums, and shaded landscape areas. Over time, the plant slowly spreads through its creeping stems, forming attractive colonies that mimic the appearance of a lush forest floor.
This listing includes a one-foot length of live vine, harvested fresh and ready for planting. While generally easy to establish in suitable climates, Northern Club Moss performs best in cooler regions and may struggle in hot southern climates with prolonged heat and humidity.

✔️ 1 foot live Northern Club Moss vine
