Taxiphyllum sp.
Origin: Asia
Dragon Flame Moss is a collector's cultivar of Flame Moss with more dramatically twisted, spiraling stems and deeper, richer green coloration than standard Flame Moss, creating a bolder visual impact when attached to hardscape. It grows slowly in compact upward spirals that are instantly recognizable and highly sought after for Nature Aquarium-style layouts.
Attach to driftwood or rock using thread or glue and allow 2–3 weeks for roots to establish. CO2 supplementation accelerates growth and maintains compact spiral form. Moderate lighting produces the best density. Avoid excessive trimming — the characteristic spiral growth tip should be preserved to maintain the distinctive form.
