Live Sphagnum: Sphagnum medium Alpine Form

Sphagnum medium: typical of alpine peat bogs, it is a medium-fiber sphagnum with a capitulum slightly smaller than its counterpart divinum and often found together with capillifolium, fallax. In summer, it tends to close its capitula in the dry season and turns green, while in winter they open up and turn a bright red tending towards purple, or a wine-red almost black depending on the intensity of the cold. During this period, it creates a beautiful contrast with the mustard-colored Fallax
